Welcome to The Abbey

History you can live in.

Originally built in 1887, the H. Alden Smith House was designed by architect William Channing Whitney as a statement residence for Horatio Alden Smith. More than a century later, it remains the centerpiece of The Abbey, restored and reimagined for the way people live now.
