Midcentury charm in the heart of White Plains
Weskora Owners' Corporation, a six-story brick building completed in 1956, stands as a notable example of midcentury design in downtown White Plains. With 72 units ranging from studios to two-bedrooms, this condominium offers a blend of vintage appeal and modern convenience. Situated in a prime location, the Weskora provides residents easy access to the vibrant city center. The straightforward design of the building emphasizes functionality, allowing residents to focus on the advantages of its central location and the array of nearby amenities.
Versatile layouts with updated features
The Weskora offers a variety of floor plans to suit different lifestyles and needs. Studios, starting at 425 square feet, provide an efficient living space perfect for singles or those seeking a pied-à-terre. One-bedroom units, ranging from 738 to 910 square feet, offer more room to spread out and are priced around $190,000. For those requiring additional space, two-bedroom units span from 1,000 to 1,250 square feet, with some featuring two bathrooms.
Many units have been thoughtfully updated over the years. Residents can expect to find hardwood floors throughout, adding warmth and character to the living spaces. Kitchens in renovated units boast granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, creating a modern and functional cooking area. Some apartments feature soapstone counters for a unique touch. Bathrooms have also seen updates, with many sporting contemporary fixtures and finishes.
The layout of these homes is designed for comfort and practicality. Ample closet space is a common feature, with some units boasting up to five closets, including walk-ins in bedrooms. Large windows allow for plenty of natural light, and many units offer city views, particularly those on higher floors.

Monthly HOA fees range from $500 to $700, which includes heat and hot water, helping residents manage their living expenses more effectively.
Essential conveniences for comfortable living
While the Weskora focuses on providing essential amenities rather than luxury extras, residents benefit from several convenient features. A laundry room located on the first floor eliminates the need for trips to off-site laundromats. The building is equipped with an elevator, ensuring easy access to all floors for residents and their guests.
Security is a priority at the Weskora, with 24-hour access control systems in place. Each unit is outfitted with smoke detectors for added safety. Climate control is individualized, allowing residents to manage their own heating and cooling preferences.
