Greek Architecture in Athens

by yooperprof

"Frat (and Sorority) Row"

Athens has a notable "frat row" which features mansion after mansion dedicated to the peculiar American collegiate institution. Fraternities and sororities in the south are very fond of "classical" architectural styles that remind a person of antebellum plantations. There's a nostalgic code embedded in these structures, some of which is noble and some of which is not.

two-story columns are common

Many of the houses are decked with banners honoring the accomplishments of their residents. "AWESOME! Erin Grady 2003-2004 Men's Basketball Cheerleader"

many of the houses have wide front porches where students sit on rockers in the evenings

some of the largest houses are obscured by ample foiliage

not all the mansions are frat or sorority houses, however - this house is still a private residence
