[2] His elder brother, also named Edward Victor Loew, married Catherine Cossitt Dodge,[3] and served in Squadron A of the New York Volunteer Cavalry with their uncle, Arthur M. Goadby, during the Spanish-American War.

[9] The same year he graduated from Columbia, he bought a seat on the New York Stock Exchange in 1897 which he retained until his death in 1955.

In addition to their New York City townhouse at 56 East 93rd Street, they owned Stoneacre, a large villa along Bellevue Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island (the grounds were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted), and Loewmoor in Old Westbury, New York (originally the Charles Albert Stevens estate named Annondale, and subsequently owned by Charles T. Barney before Loew).

[9][27] The contents of his home in Old Westbury, including "a quantity of eighteenth-century cabinetwork, British sporting paintings, views and portraits, Chinese and French porcelain, antique textiles and fine Oriental rugs", were auctioned off in early 1951.

[28] The English furniture, silver, paintings and other household items from his New York residence were auctioned off after his death.
