One of these days, whenever they finally take down this sidewalk shed, I’ll get another picture of this building, but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. This is 60 White Street in Tribeca which was very clearly built in 1869. Its owner/developer was Jasper Grosvenor, although interestingly he was dead before construction started. Because this was the 19th Century his wife Matilda oversaw construction on behalf of her late husband, but was never listed as the owner. This was one of three identical buildings constructed by architect William W. Gardiner, Matilda Grosvenor only owned two of the three of them. No. 60 was occupied for a while by Albert G. Hyde & Sons who made cotton goods, which would have been a fairly typical tenant for the neighborhood at the time. And because this is Tribeca, wouldn’t you know the building is now luxury condos. It was landmarked as a part of the Tribeca East Historic District on December 8th, 1992.
