Located in White Plains, Westchester County, New York, the Presbyterian Rest for Convalescents is a 3½-story Tudor Revival structure built in 1913. The H-shaped building combines brick on its lower two stories with half-timbering and stucco on the upper levels, crowned by a tiled gable roof with dormer windows. The connecting section between the two wings frames the main entrance, distinguished by stone facing and Tudor arches. Originally designed as a convalescent home, the building served that purpose until 1967, when the Y.W.C.A. acquired it and converted it to a residence for women. Acheson Wallace Hall was added to the complex in 1972. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
