No. 25 Bethune Street is built in 1836 with anthemion-pattern iron railings
The Greenwich Village Historic District report singles out No. 25, built in 1836, as one of three especially fine Greek Revival row houses at Nos. 25-29. Its cast-iron newels carry anthemion caps, its areaway railing has a Greek fret pattern at the base, and its front door sits between paired pilasters with three-paned sidelights. The house kept its original two and a half stories over a basement.
“Neo-Grec in style and are topped by Greek anthemion caps at No. 25. ... Built in 1836, they retain their original two and one-half story height with basement.”
