The 29th Street windows are actually small dormers in the Mansard roof, thus they are narrower and higher off of the floor than we might have liked. For the renovation, we have been designed the window surrounds to help them feel as expansive as possible.

| The paneling pattern below the window is based on the two remaining panels we found from the 1860's building. |
