Identify at least one building near where you live


Problem

The ancient Greeks of the 5th Century in Athens placed a strong emphasis on harmony, order, balance, clarity, and proportion. Those qualities make up something we call Classicism today. In what ways do you see the characteristics of classicism reflected in architecture around where you live? Identify at least one building near where you live that uses one (or more) of the classical style orders of architecture (Doric, Ionic, Corinthian). For example, the building may have Doric columns, or Corinthian acanthus leaf capitals or Ionic Volutes (scrolled capitals) on it.

Is the building symmetrical? Does it feel balanced between the right and left sides? Does it contain any columns? Are the columns Doric or Ionic or even Corinthian Order columns? Are there other classical architectural elements on it like sculpted panels or a continuous frieze? Does it have a pediment? If you are able to do so, please attach a photo of the architecture (unless it is someone's private home)
