TheMacDougal–Sullivan Gardens Historic District is a small historic district consisting of 22 houses located at 74–96MacDougal Street and 170–188Sullivan Street betweenHouston andBleecker Streets in theSouth Village area of theGreenwich Village neighborhood ofManhattan, New York City.

The district was designated aNew York City landmark in 1967^[2] and was added to theNational Register of Historic Places in 1983.^[1]^[3]

History

[edit]

The land under what would become the historic district was purchased in 1796 byNicholas Low, a prominent New York merchant. The houses were built in 1844 (MacDougal Street) and 1850 (Sullivan Street) by Low's estate, in the fashionableGreek Revival style. The original plans for the houses called for street level retail space anddormered roofs.^[4]

Over time, the houses became run-down, until they were bought in 1920 byWilliam Sloane Coffin Sr., a director of the furniture and rug retailerW. & J. Sloane, who formed the Hearth and Home Corporation to do so. Coffin's intention was to create an affordable development formiddle-class professionals in what had become a slum; the project would be the most extensive such effort to that time. Coffin engaged architects Francis Y. Joannes and Maxwell Hyde, who converted the houses into apartments – a five-room duplex, a four-room apartment, and two "non-housekeeping" apartments – and re-faced the buildings inColonial Revival style while retaining some of the original Greek Revival elements. They removed all the buildings' stoops, altered the doorways and entrances to the basement level, and combined the rear yards to make a common garden which included a playground for children.^[2]^[4]^[5]^[6]

The renovation of the buildings was completed by 1921, and the garden by 1923. The houses were sold to individual owners in 1924, with the integrity of the project maintained by the MacDougal–Sullivan Gardens Association.^[2]^[5]^[6]

Coffin's development was influential in its time, inspiring other developments such as that which is now theTurtle Bay Gardens Historic District,^[4] and remains a "model for urban city housing".^[2]
