Besides the apartment buildings mentioned in other sections related to the book there are apartment buildings that predate 1940 in other parts of the city:
Saxon House (1928) at 23 Old Mamaroneck Rd,
Surrey Strathmore (1939) at 90 Bryant Ave

I lived in White Plains until 1993.
In the past few years I learned that my 4th great-grandfather had a farm in SE White Plains at the Harrison / WP border.
His name was Israel Harriot and in 1776 he fought at the Battle of WP, Long Island and at Yorktown, VA in the defeat of Cornwallis.
His son-in-law, Abraham Leonard is my direct ancestor.
My 1st great-granddad’s name was William Harriot Leonard and is one of the sons of Abraham Leonard and Catherine Harriot Leonard.
I also attended WP schools from grade 5 at Ridgeway School and later Eastview, Highlands and WP HS.
