The Church of the Messiah, dated 1839, stands at 724 Broadway
The Landmarks Preservation Commission places the Church of the Messiah at 724 Broadway, dated 1839, among the congregations that followed St. Thomas's Episcopal Church into the neighborhood. It was an earlier use of this site, well before the area filled with lofts. The commission notes that of that group only Grace Church still stands.

Greenwich Savings Bank removes the upper floors of an 1860 commercial building at 724 Broadway
An 1860-61 commercial building stood here until 1936, when its owner, the Greenwich Savings Bank, had the upper floors removed and a new storefront installed to plans by Lewis C. Patton. What remained was a single story. Around 1987 even that was completely reworked, and the current marble and glass front dates from then.
