Description

The sole citation (court proceedings) lists 'receiver Astoria Savings bank', indicating a receivership/closure. The article does not describe a run or explicit suspension, but assignment of a receiver implies the bank was closed; I classify as suspension_closure for closure with receiver. No cause or measures are given in the text.
