This has been judged by many as the finest of all Grecian terraces and consists of 10 two floor houses. The upper floor is smaller than the ground floor, a trademark of Alexander "Greek" Thomson's style and the windows are set back from the stonework to make the upper floor look as if it consists only of pillars. The chimney pots are decorated in the style of Egyptian lotus flowers. Thomson, the city's greatest architect of the Victorian era, joined forces with John MacIntyre, a local builder, and Alexander Stevenson, owner of the local Giffnock Quarry, to build this and similar houses in the area which was known at the time as Regent's Park. Thomson himself lived in number one from 1861, while his friend Alexander Stevenson lived at number five.
