Building

The exterior of the structure has remained intact over time.[1] The façade is as beautiful as it was when it was initially built.[1] There are small indications of wear and tear, but the interiors have not changed considerably.[1] The unchanged furnishings, slow-moving ceiling fans, and historic portraits that adorn the building's walls preserve its authenticity.[1]
