    Isaac Lawrence has a slate-roofed house built at what is now 322 Canal Street in 1825-26

    The core of 322 Canal Street was one of several dwellings put up in 1825-26 for Isaac Lawrence, a shipping merchant and banker who died in 1841. This one had two and a half stories under a slate-covered peaked roof and was numbered 67, then 69, before it became 322. It was later divided among several occupants and its lower two floors were converted to commercial use. Architect Abraham L. Seiden's 1962-65 alterations, part of a project covering Nos. 312 to 322, left it a two-story shop building about 21 and a half feet wide.
