The Lanata houses are a group of historic row houses along Chartres Street in New Orleans, Lousiana. The nearly identical homes were all designed by the man that made St Louis Cathedral, J.N.B De Pouilly. The homes stand where the French originally had their army barracks and military hospital. Dominique Lanata acquired the land in 1845. Beginning in 1845, Dominique Lanata built 5 identical houses in a row, facing Chartres Street, for his family. They were among the first Greek revival buildings in the French Quarter. The Lanata Row houses have stood for over 150 years. One such building is now the Richelieu Hotel while yet another is the Lanata House Apartments.
