Para sa nag-iisang pamilyang bumibili, madali nang maibalik ang natatanging tahanan na ito sa orihinal nitong pamilyang tahanan.

Ang ari-arian na ito ay maaaring ibigay na walang laman, na may mga nangungupahan, o maaaring manirahan/trabaho sa isang palapag o dalawa o tatlo at panatilihin ang kita sa pagrenta. Walang rent stabilization. Ang gusali, bloke, parke, at nakapaligid na kapitbahayan ay lahat protektado at pinanatili bilang bahagi ng Greenwich Village Historic District.

Ang tahanan ni William Dare Morgan ay orihinal na itinayo bilang isang apat na palapag na bahay na may gated forecourt, marangyang bakod, isang nakataas na stoop, pormal na may haligi na pasukan, at pintong may panel na may sidelight at transom. Si William Dare Morgan ay naging Pangalawang Pangulo ng Produce Exchange, isang kasosyo sa Grinnell, Tinker & Morgan, isang gobernador ng Knickerbocker Club, isang tagapagtatag ng New York Hospital, at isang nagtapos ng Yale University. Siya at ang kanyang asawang si Angelica Livingston Hoyt, isang inapo ng dalawa sa mga lumagda sa Deklarasyon ng Kalayaan, ay nagpalaki ng apat na anak sa bahay. Nagdagdag sila ng ikalimang palapag noong 1880, at ang kanilang pamilya ay nanatili sa bahay ng mahigit kalahating siglo. Ang mga sumunod na may-ari ay kinabibilangan ng dating ehekutibo ng silent movie na si Richard West Saunders, kilalang abugado na si John Pinkerton East, pintor na si Everett Shinn, at ang financier na si Charles V. Bob. Ang mga bahay na may Greek Revival style sa kahabaan ng hilagang bahagi ng Washington Square Park na nakapalibot sa lower Fifth Avenue ay nananatili bilang bahagi ng isang grupo ng mga bahay na kilala bilang "the Row", na itinayo para sa mga sosyal na elite ng Village noong 1830s. Ngayon ay kinikilala bilang isa sa mga pinaka-natatanging serye ng Greek Revival houses sa bansa, sila ay hinahangaan para sa kanilang pantay-pantay na estilo ng arkitektura, mataas na kalidad na konstruksyon, sobrang malalawak at malalalim na lote, mga kilalang stoop, pormal na pasukan, at mahuhusay na mga hardin at forecourts.

Noong 1900s, ang lugar ay tahanan ng mga kilalang manunulat na Amerikano kabilang sina Edgar Allen Poe, Mark Twain at Ida Tarbell. Si Edward Hopper at di mabilang na iba pang mga pintor, musikero at artista ay humugot ng inspirasyon mula sa enerhiya at komunidad. Ang Greenwich Village ay isa sa ilang mga kapitbahayan na nananatili ang dating alindog at pakiramdam ng walang hanggan sa Manhattan.

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.
