Whittle House, 225 West Freemason Street, Norfolk, Norfolk, Virginia
Summary
Significance: The Whittle House is a rare example of a late eighteenth-century town house. Although few town houses survive in modern-day Norfolk, the Whittle House and the nearby Moses Myers House exhibit a quality of construction and finesse in design suggestive of their occupants' refinement as well as the cultural breadth of the city.
