1869
The estate of D. C. Williams has a cast-iron loft built at 62 White Street
In 1869 the estate of D. C. Williams commissioned architect William W. Gardiner to design a five-story store and loft building at 62 White Street, with a cast-iron Second Empire facade. It stands between two near twins, Gardiner's designs for the Grosvenor estate at 60 and 64-66 White Street. An older masonry structure fronting the lot, along with a small auxiliary building at the rear, was cleared to make room, and the cornice is inscribed "Erected 1869."
“…it was erected in 1869 for the estate of D.C. Williams. It replaced a masonry building at the front of the lot and an auxiliary structure at the rear.”

2015
Three White Street lofts from 1869 are joined inside after a gut renovation
Around 2015 the Grosvenor Building at 64-66 White Street was connected internally with its smaller neighbors at 60 and 62, which Gardiner had designed in the same year. A gut renovation turned the group into a mixed-use building. Lost storefront details, such as the Corinthian capitals, were refabricated, returning the facade to its 1869 appearance.
