If your data source is a SharePoint list, you could use the ListViewWebPart to achieve this. What exactly are the requirements of the view - should you also include the context-sensitive menu ("Edit properties" etc) ? If not, you could just create a custom web part and override the CreateChildControls method, and there mimic the html/css that is rendered in a document library.
