And also the windows (I think they're called 3 over 3?) are a nice classic touch as well. While I have a keen appreciation for a nice cornice on a buiilding roof-line I think this style works as well, well not quite as well as what was there previously but at least the building doesn't have that unfinished look. Some developers when renovating a building forget about a cornice altogether and its as though they are saying design isn't important. And as well all know, it is.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06558758450413912484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2048034911181517049.post-44274874328181332802014-02-13T14:56:23.267-05:002014-02-13T14:56:23.267-05:00HideousHideousAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2048034911181517049.post-42023343360648889822014-02-13T14:37:26.073-05:002014-02-13T14:37:26.073-05:00What pity........missed opportunity What pity........missed opportunity Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2048034911181517049.post-56676088523217724402014-02-13T10:32:31.540-05:002014-02-13T10:32:31.540-05:00Tacky and out of context.

Keep your fences in the 'burbs; bring back the stately cornice and arched window treatments.Jeffrey Cole LeFrancoishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611405262383622127noreply@blogger.com
