[Sorry - enlarged view] The sculptured ornamentation detail of Churrigueresque Architecture as seen around windows of the towers - a character of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture (SCR) in the new world colonial buildings, which also incorporated Mission Revival style elements and Pueblo Revival style (the vigas - logs protruding out the front above the center colums). Primary SCR features originally were red clay tiled roof with wide broad-rimmed roof overhang, low-pitched shed-type roof (although hip roof on 2nd story), arched window and door openings, symmetrical features, twin towers framing columned portico front arcade between the towers.
