1836
The Suckleys rebuild after the Great Fire, and a drygoods firm returns to its old address
The drygoods firm Tweedy & Mozier occupied the earlier building here when the 1835 fire hit. A few months later George Suckley and the attorney Rutsen Suckley bought the lot, and by the end of 1836 they had built the store and loft building that stands today. The former tenants returned as Tweedy, Jennings & Company, and the Suckley family owned the lot well into the twentieth century.
