    No. 125 is the oldest building on its Grand Street block, a Federal-period survivor

    The Landmarks Commission names 125 Grand Street the oldest building on its block, dating from the Federal period. Its neighbor at No. 127 followed in the 1830s in a modified Greek Revival manner, one of just two Greek Revival structures left in the SoHo-Cast Iron district. Both have four stories, though the floors at No. 127 are proportionately taller.
