-- No newspaper office was on Fulton St. west of Broadway, so the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle stated it as renewed proof of business spreading to Manhattan’s west side.

Shepard, with a great urge to publish matters related to the Union League club, did so.

Shepard died suddenly a year after building was commenced. After the house was occupied Mrs. Shepard's favorite daughter died there of typhoid fever. her son contracted an unhappy marriage and...Mrs. Shepard abandoned the house several years ago."
