About Whitney Museum of American Art

The Whitney Museum of American Art's original building is a collection of three 1838 rowhouses at 8–12 West 8th Street, between Fifth Avenue and MacDougal Street, in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. In 1907, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney converted a stable on MacDougal Alley into a studio for herself, which in 1914 she connected with the adjacent townhouse at 8 West 8th street, all the while exhibiting the work of progressive young American artists. This Whitney Studio Gallery, with the later Whitney Studio Club at 147 West 4th Street, which in 1923 moved to West 8th Street, were intended to provide young artists with places to meet and exhibit their works.
