This style of architecture was popular in the late 19th century and featured grand facades, ornate detailing, and a blend of classical elements from various historical periods. The distinctive features of the “Brown Building,” like its ornate cornice, decorative elements, and classical proportions, are all characteristics of the Classical Revival style.
