Rezidencija Williama Dare Morgana izvorno je izgrađena kao četverokatna kuća s ograđenim dvorištem, ukrašenim ogradama, uzdignutom terasom, formalnim ulaznim portikom s kolonama i paneliziranim vratima s bočnim staklenim svjetlima i transom. William Dare Morgan bio je potpredsjednik Robne burze, partner u Grinnell, Tinker & Morgan, guverner Knickerbocker Cluba, osnivač New York Hospital i diplomirani student Yalea. On i njegova supruga Angelica Livingston Hoyt, potomak dvojice potpisnika Deklaracije neovisnosti, odgajali su četvero djece u kući. Dodali su peti kat 1880. godine, a njihova obitelj ostala je u kući više od pola stoljeća. Sljedeći vlasnici uključuju bivšeg izvršnog direktora nijemih filmova Richarda Westa Saundersa, poznatog odvjetnika Johna Pinkertona Easta, slikara Everetta Shinna, i financijera Charlesa V. Boba. Kuće u grčkom revivalu duž sjeverne strane Washington Square Parka, koje flankiraju donju Petu aveniju, ono su što je ostalo od grupe kuća poznatih kao "the Row", izgrađenih za društvenu elitu Villagea 1830-ih. Sada prepoznate kao jedna od najistaknutijih serija kuća u grčkom revivalu u zemlji, bile su vrlo tražene zbog svog uniformnog arhitektonskog stila, visokokvalitetne konstrukcije, ekstra širokih i dubokih parcela, istaknutih terasa, formalnih ulaznih portika i velikih prednjih vrtova i dvorišta.

Tijekom 1900-ih, područje je bilo dom značajnim američkim piscima uključujući Edgara Allena Poea, Marka Twaina i Idu Tarbell. Edward Hopper i bezbrojni drugi slikari, muzičari i umjetnici crpili su inspiraciju iz energije i zajednice. Greenwich Village je jedno od rijetkih susjedstava koje i dalje zadržava šarm starog svijeta i osjećaj vječnog vremena u Manhattanu.

The William Dare Morgan residence was originally built as a four-story home with gated forecourt, ornate fencing, an elevated stoop, formal columned entrance portico, and paneled door with sidelights and transom. William Dare Morgan was Vice President of the Produce Exchange, a partner in Grinnell, Tinker & Morgan, a governor of the Knickerbocker Club, a founder of New York Hospital, and a graduate of Yale University. He and his wife Angelica Livingston Hoyt, a descendant of two of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, raised four children in the house. They added a fifth floor in 1880, and their family remained in the house for over half a century. Ensuing owners include former silent movie executive Richard West Saunders, well-known attorney John Pinkerton East, painter Everett Shinn, and the financier Charles V. Bob. The Greek Revival style houses along the North side of Washington Square Park flanking lower Fifth Avenue are what remains of a group of houses known as "the Row", built for the social elite of the Village in the 1830s. Now recognized as one of the most outstanding series of Greek Revival houses in the country, they were sought after for their uniform architectural style, high quality construction, extra wide and deep lots, prominent stoops, formal entrance porticos, and generous front gardens and forecourts.

During the 1900s, the area was home to notable American writers including Edgar Allen Poe, Mark Twain and Ida Tarbell. Edward Hopper and countless other painters, musicians and artists have drawn inspiration from the energy and community. Greenwich Village is one of the few neighborhoods that still retain old world charm and a sense of timelessness in Manhattan.
