It's from their website - and doesn't include the sixth house now being built!


I like Mercer's for the same reason - similar houses, but personal touches.

Thanks. I will also add that ALL groups are represented (NPC, NPHC, NIC) As a Greek alumna I was solicited for money for the "Greek Village" not for the Chi Omega house. The university did a great job -- the houses were dedicated in 2000.

I really like Florida State's Greek houses. Although not a "row" the sorority houses are amazing and the new village-type thing they've got going on for the fraternities is quite impressive.

Purdue also has pretty impressive houses, if only for the fact that it seems like the Greek houses take up as much space as the actual campus itself. The Kappa Sigma and Delta Tau Delta houses there are amazing (I think... I like impressive architecture and ivy on the walls).

Like someone else said, I also really enjoy UVA's entire campus, especially the Greek houses! (And Kappa Sigma's new HQ)

I love all of the houses I've seen at USC (Southern California). I'm also impressed with the sheer size of the houses at IU.

I know I'm biased . . . but I have to agree. I always love driving down 28th street after a football game to check on "the row"

or, if you want to go directly to looking at the houses, start here for fraternities: http://depts.washington.edu/greek/if...maalphaepsilon
and here for sororities: http://www.uwpanhellenic.com/chapter-profiles.html
I love UW's Greek Row and the pictures do not do it justice

Even though my chapter does not have a house, I'm partial to all of the old beautiful homes along Milledge in Athens. There are also a few other really beautiful chapter houses located throughout different parts of town. AChiO has a lovely home on Lumpkin, along with Sigma Chi. Too bad the county put a moratorium on any new fraternity/sorority housing construction...then there are all those zoning issues.....

I'm particularly fond of 530 S. Milledge Ave...who doesn't LOVE the newly painted wedding cake house

I am going to Gainesville this weekend so I'll have to check out their houses!

I think though, and I've seen these in person:

LSU
Ole Miss
Alabama
UGA

Then just from seeing the pictures online:

South Carolina
Illinois
FSU

I also like some of the houses at Berkeley, I'm not sure if it's really a "row," though.

Rows I've seen;

Illinois
IA State
Iowa (not the best, but old)
Northwestern (unique)
Minnesota (pretty nice)

Rows I'm surprised haven't been mentioned:

Oklahoma (huge houses)
Oklahoma State (huge houses)
Mizzou (huge houses)

Oklahoma State has beautiful and very well maintained houses with diverse architecture, but they are scattered over a few different blocks with clusters of two or three in a block or around the corner. They are all in one general area, but if they were all together it would be really impressive. There are some old, historic ones, some newer ones---and the architecture includes classical, modern, tudor and colonial.

OU also has beautiful houses--seriously big ones, too. Monsters, some of them.
