"Colonnade Row, Noho by Carbone Smolan Agency. LaGrange Terrace, more commonly known as Colonnade Row, originally consisted of nine row houses built for New York’s fashionable elite (think of the Astors and the Vanderbilts) back when Lafayette ended at Great Jones Street. Today only four of the homes remain. Built in the early 19th-century, this Greek Revival architectural marvel was one of the first historic landmarks registered in New York, yet today it struggles to maintain its poise. Sharply renovated on the inside (1-bedroom apartments go for upwards of $4,000), the marble Corinthian columns on the exterior are now cracked and crumbling."
