The FITZROY rows of grand Italianate townhouses were built in the mid-1850s on the north side of 22nd Street and south side of 23rd Street, on Clement Clark Moore land. Considered among the finest in New York at the time and referred to as "Millionaire's Row', these homes were transformed in the 20th century into multi-family co-op apartments. These wonderful buildings are now protected by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission's Historic District designation.
