fraternity row

College brotherhood zone

Fraternity row refers to a street or area on or near a college campus where multiple fraternity houses are clustered together.

These concentrations of Greek letter organizations create distinct residential zones, often characterized by large houses with prominent Greek letters displayed on their facades.

The party got shut down on fraternity row around midnight.

The term sometimes carries connotations of raucous social activity and privilege associated with Greek life at American universities.
