		The NYPD erected barricades that stretched a block down the Bowery in front of the bank's main headquarters and penned another two-block area in front of the Canal St. branch.
		But bank customer Lau Ling, 68, sobbed as he talked about family heirlooms in a safe-deposit box, which is not covered by federal insurance.

	The Dazzle, a CurtainUp review
		In 1942 the Collyer name was in the headlines for the first time when the Bowery Savings bank initiated eviction procedures because the mortgage on the house was in default.
		The Collyer brothers remained in their shadowy world until 1947 when an anonymous phone call about a dead man at 2078 Fifth Avenue brought a crew of rescue workers to the old mansion.
		Their father, Dr. Herman L. Collyer, was a prominent Manhattan gynecologist and their mother was a well-educated woman, with a particular bent for music (which may have inspired Richard Greenberg to make Langley a concert pianist).

		When he finally emerged from the funereal dust, he proved to be a courtly old gentleman, descended from aristocrats who had lived in the Hudson Valley for 300 years; he had a Columbia education; he had once taught Sunday school at Trinity Church downtown; his father had been a Bellevue physician.
		And little more was heard of the Collyer brothers until Saturday the 22nd of March 1947.

		The buildings White designed and decorated--Madison Square Garden, the Fudson Memorial Church, New York University (in a former incarnation), Newport's Rosecliff mansion, the Bowery Savings Bank--are now landmarks that reflect the love of indeed obsession with, beauty that drove him.
		Stanford retaliated by saying that Gothic reflected a Catholic and medieval mentality--that classicism was closer to the spirit of the early Christians and was therefore the appropriate style for a Protestant nation.
		Stanford drew up plans for a French chateau, but then he had to go out of town and handed the project over to Joseph Wells, who took it only on condition that he have a free hand.
