This sophisticated row of single-family houses features Colonial motifs such as rounded bays and oriels, rectangular and segmental-arch entrances and leaded-glass transoms and fanlights. Numbers 623–627 housed an Episcopal convent before they were purchased in 2010 by Columbia University, which plans to convert them into a student-faculty center.
