The Whitney

the management is horrible.
also many of units are getting a lot of noises from outside, and they try to hide it during the showing.

Second winter with drafty windows in bedroom and dining nook, thanks to sh*tty construction and exterior upkeep. Management response? Blame condensation on moisture we might generate when it’s only the two drafty windows icing over.

I lived in the Whitney for 4.5 years, and only moved due to a new job back in NJ, where I am from. I loved living in the Whitney– convenient location to everything, the pool, the grounds, the staff, especially Lorraine, Laura, Elliot, and Tiya. Any maintenance issue was resolved immediately. While you may find an apartment for less rent, the location of the Whitney cannot be beat. I can’t say enough great things about living here. I miss living in Bethesda, and very much miss living in the Whitney.

So glad I moved out of here. Terrible management and probably the most expensive apartment community in Bethesda. There are plenty of other buildings in this area, I would suggest looking elsewhere.

I live in an apartment in this complex and have lived here for 4 months. In that time I have had 3 major leaks and the air conditioning has failed twice. One leak was in the Master Bedroom closet and the maintenance staff cut out a huge hole in the ceiling and left it that way for a week. Another major leak has resulted in large portions of the living room ceiling starting to give way and buckle. This place is a nightmare and I am paying over $ 3,000/month.

we have lived 5 happy years at the whitney. very friendly and responsive staff (special kudos to
elliott for maintenance– master of problem fix). great location (backs to tree lined residential streets), beautiful pool and common areas, great party room. i recommend the whitney to anyone looking for easy, happy, pseudo city living.

We love the Whitney! Excellent location, shopping, metro. Despite the access to everything, it feels like living in a neighborhood rather than a high rise in a retail area. It feels like home. The neighbors are kind people, and many of them are dog owners. .enough said. The staff are highly accommodating, always attentive to tenants. Many of the tenants have lived here for years and it’s clear why.

It’s now over three months since we moved in and we are so taken by our new home and the staff that I just had to write a brief update. With all of the choices in Bethesda it may be difficult to choose. But the Whitney’s location and the multiple apartment layouts, coupled with the most helpful staff one could wish for, should make the Whitney a top choice. I hope we are here many years and remain as happy as we are!

I’ve lived in the Whitney for almost a year and am very happy. The staff is excellent, the building is very nice, and the apartments – at least mine – are very quiet. The pool is really nice, and like everything else, is well maintained. The location is within walking distance to most everything you’d want in Bethesda. If you’re not a dog person, be warned that the Whitney does allow pets and many residents have canines ranging from small and yappy to lumbering.

I’ve lived at The Whitney for a few months and I really love it! The location is great – very close to metro, restaurants, and shops. The building is well-​maintained and very clean. The concierge staff is very friendly and helpful. The gym is very small for the size of the building and can be crowded at peak times. I live on the 4^th floor and I can sometimes hear music from Bethesda Blues and Jazz Club downstairs. It’s not terrible, but not ideal. All in all, it’s a great place to live!

After touring over 10 apartment complexes in the DC metro area, it was a very easy decision to go with the Whitney.
What stood out most to me, right from the beginning, was the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. When you commit to a one-​year lease (or more!), you want to know you can live with people who you can trust and be comfortable around. I had moved from California, and the Whitney became my first home. After living here for nearly two years now, I call this place my home because the concierge, maintenance, and neighbors (and their dogs) have become my friends and family. Everyone is very friendly and are great neighbors. I’ve never had any complaints — noise, delays, or hostility. The people at the Whitney are wonderful.
Another unique feature of the Whitney is its impeccable appearance. The building is beautiful inside and out. All the amenities (gym, pool, and common living room and conference room) are new and updated in a timely manner. They are always kept clean and decorated to each season. In my individual unit, all the appliances are very new and if I require assistance, maintenance is always quick.
Lastly, the Whitney is in a great area. It is a quick drive or bike down the street to the NIH or the beltway. It is a 5 – 10 minute walk to metro/​Bethesda Row. There are many great local restaurants, the Capital Crescent Trail, and markets easy walk away.
I highly recommend visiting the Whitney for a tour to learn more. There are a lot of housing options in the area at about the same price range ($ 100 — $ 300 difference). Believe me when I say quality and comfort varies greatly in the area. At the Whitney, you truly build a home.

I have lived at the Whitney for five months and I am loving it. I haven’t lived in an apartment in many, many years so downsizing was a little scary. But it has been such a wonderful experience. The staff are so friendly and the building is always kept in great shape. It has a gym and is so close to everything in Bethesda including the metro.
My favorite part is that the staff are so dog friendly. My dog Mischief has adjusted wonderfully and always looks forward to the treat after his walk.
Would recommend it highly.

Having lived in over a dozen different apartments over the years, I can easily recommend The Whitney as the best building I have ever lived in.
The building has great amenities, especially for families; the pool is well maintained with a lifeguard on duty at all times.
The gym, while small, offers all the essentials and is always clean.
The Concierge team is always pleasant and helpful, and the management team is genuinely eager to address any issues in a professional and timely manner; this is a very rare trait.
The apartments themselves are spacious and well laid out, the public spaces are immaculate and the maintenance team is always quick to correct any problems.
I highly recommend The Whitney to anyone panning to live in Bethesda. It has an easy access to the Metro and by car, many dining options within a 5 minute walk and a CVS across the street; essential when living with young kids.

This is my third year living at The Whitney and I absolutely love it as much as I did as the day I moved in. I’ve lived in two different apartments, one a two bed two bath and the other a one bed one bath. I have greatly enjoyed both layouts! The building is well managed and maintained. The pool is refreshing in the summer, the BBQ/​patio area is perfect on warm days and nights, and I love having a gym in the building. Also, the convenience of the location cannot be beat. Just a few minutes away from the Bethesda Metro Station and near lots of restaurants and shops! Last but not least, I feel like the staff really wants to know who you are and truly cares about you as a person, not just a resident. They greet you with a smile and address you by name. That makes a big difference in my book when I think about where I want to live. In between living in the two bedroom apartment and now the one bedroom, I actually searched around other apartment buildings in the area to see what else was out there. After visiting several and meeting with their staff, I instantly chose to stay at the Whitney. No other apartment building that I visited gave me the feeling of home as The Whitney does. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great place to live in Bethesda.

This is probably the worst choice you can make in Bethesda for apartments. They’re overpriced and the management doesn’t deliver the services promised. Furthermore, they treat the residents poorly. All they care about is how much they can gouge you for rent, parking, pets, etc., — even after you leave. They will charge you for the carpet and water in your empty apt and send you threatening e-mails.They hike up the rent yearly even during a recession. Stay away from these rent gougers.
