203 Prince Street is an historic townhouse on Prince Street between MacDougal and Sullivan Streets in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, New York. Built in 1834 with 2 1/2 stories on land that was once part of the estate of Aaron Burr, the house acquired an additional full story in 1888.[2] Primarily constructed in the late Federal style, the building also has elements of the Greek Revival style.[3][4]

The house was designated a New York City landmark in 1979, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
