The Whitney & Company building is a historic industrial facility at 142 Water Street in Leominster, Massachusetts. The utilitarian brick four story building was built in 1893, and extended in 1923. It was built by Fred Abbot Whitney and Walther F. Whitney, whose father had established the F. A. Whitney Carriage Company. The Whitney brothers' business was the manufacture of boxes, notably paper boxes and satin-lined boxes.[2]

The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
