    A five-story stone store at 577 Broadway is built for the Astor Langdon estate

    Completed in 1860 for the estate of Mrs. Astor Langdon, this five-story, three-bay stone store shares one facade with its neighbors at 579 and 581 Broadway. Its first iron storefront came from Badger's Architectural Iron Works, and the storefront there now carries a foundry plaque from Cornell Iron Works. The building runs through the block to Mercer Street, where it is numbered 148.
