PARIS TEXAS & PACIFIC DEPOT IN PARIS, TX
A solidly-built, rectangular red-brick structure including brick water table, which is topped with a double brick band around the entire building and in line with the window sills (classic Prairie style). The station manager's bay window is tower-like; that is, the bay area extends above and outward from the eave line. A strange, multi-pitched roof - primarily a dormer on main roof and with a gable roof extending the ridge to the bay's front. It's like a hipped dormer with a gable end. Italianate architecture features a tower, which often is a square, flat-topped Italian belvedere or campanile watch tower and the brackets that support the broad eave. Decorative brickwork band along street and track sides above windows and doors.
