    The store at 449 Broadway was built in 1855-56 for Matthew Morgan, with a marble facade and iron cornices, and it extends through to Mercer Street. Its iron storefront appears in Daniel Badger's Architectural Iron Works catalog of 1865, which names the proprietor as a Mr. Jackson. The ground floor has since been altered.
