PenthouseThe advertisements of the building feature 18th and 19th century themed characters and settings and goes quite well with the industrial history of the neighborhood. The website features pictures of old fashioned cars , bridges and people dressed in the elaborate Victorian outfits and head dresses.
TownhomesThe façade of the building has framed windows that tilt and turn out to open and mixed with copper panels which are treated to give them that old industrial look.
