MacDougal-Sullivan Gardens Historic District, Historic residential district in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, United States.

The district contains 22 houses arranged in two rows along MacDougal and Sullivan Streets, surrounding a shared private garden space.

Nicholas Low purchased the land in 1796, leading to the construction of Greek Revival homes along MacDougal Street in 1844 and Sullivan Street in 1850.

William Sloane Coffin transformed the properties in 1920 through the Hearth and Home Corporation to create housing for middle-class professionals in Greenwich Village.

The MacDougal-Sullivan Gardens Association, formed by homeowners, maintains the gardens and preserves the historical character of the residential complex.

The district combines Greek Revival architecture with Colonial Revival modifications, featuring varied pastel-colored facades and a central communal garden space.
