    Frederick Folz leases the lot at No. 435 from the Astor estate in 1860

    The lot belonged to the large Astor holdings in the East Village and passed to William B. Astor on John Jacob Astor's death. In 1860 the Astors leased it to Frederick Folz, and a five-story brick tenement rose on it around 1860 to 1861. Small windows were cut into the east bay of each story in 1911.

    “This lot was part of the extensive holdings of John J. Astor. It passed to William Astor on his death. The lot was first leased to Frederick Folz in 1860…”
