The large central chamber still preserves its stone vault. It is flanked by seven shops, which originally had concrete vaults, on either side. The original colonnade of 28 Corinthian columns was curtailed to 25 columns when the Captives Façade was constructed.","","Monument","","Northwest Shops",""

It is now understood to be entirely a Roman monument, built in the time of the emperor Augustus, which closed off the north side of the forum. It is oriented south of west parallel with the south peribolos wall of the Temple of Apollo. At its eastern end the stoa was built over a smaller Hellenistic stoa. The stoa is about 101 m. long and 9 m. wide with an exterior colonnade of 47 Doric columns and an interior colonnade of 20 Ionic columns. The local limestone is used for all the elements. This was finished with a fine coat of lime stucco to mimic marble. Foundations for a staircase at the west end of the building suggest that it was a two storey building. When the Northwest Shops were built immediately in front of the stoa its use continued, perhaps a warehouse.","","Monument","","Northwest Stoa",""

It consisted of a semicircular orchestra surrounded by seating, a stage building, and two roofed parodoi. It is reckoned to have held an audience of about 3,000. Built in the 1st century A.D., it was remodelled in the mid-2nd century A.D., perhaps with money provided by the famous philanthropist Herodes Atticus. A courtyard surrounded by stoas was constructed to the north of the stage building, connecting the Odeion with the theatre and presenting the two buildings as a unified complex. In the third building phase (c. A.D. 225), a fire destroyed the north peristyle and part of the stage building. The Odeion was converted into a gladiatorial arena by cutting back the lowest eight rows of Orchestra seating. The stage building fell into disuse. The Odeion was finally destroyed and completely abandoned at the end of the 4th century A.D.","","Monument","","Odeion",""
