    John Van Nest, tied to a family saddlery firm, has 58 Bank Street built

    The house at 58 Bank Street was built in the mid-1840s as a three-story Greek Revival home for John Van Nest, who was linked to an old family saddlery business at 114 Pearl Street. Later owners gave it a fourth story and a heavy Italianate cornice on brackets. The stoop and the long windows at the parlor level remain.
