Staple of classical Greek architecture (7)

I believe the answer is:

portico

(Other definitions for portico that I've seen before include "Colonnade, covered porch" , "Zeno's teaching colonnade" , "Entrance with a roof supported by columns" , "covered area" , "Porch-like structure with columns" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
