A little two-point practice. Didn't do any perspective construction. just vibin', imagining a shady street.

This sort of thing would be good for lighting practice probably. I didn't bother.

    I have been informed that the stone trim around the middle is called a "belt cornice".

      No I like it that size. I imagine the upper windows are just a clearstory and the inside is huge.

      I like the stone lintels. And the belt course and cornice are neat on such a small scale. They all look kind of Italianate.

      It’s been quite a long time since I took an architectural history course, but do you happen to live in a Midwestern city?

        Yep this is very much an Italianate building as were commonly built in Midwestern downtowns, probably around the late 19th, early 20th century.
