The most consistent Colonial Revival elements found in these buildings are building symmetry; hipped roofs that often intersected one another; the use of a single, decorative fan or Palladian windows located high - up in the gabled or pedimented (triangular end) of the roof; double - hung windows with decorative features like thick concrete sills or curved, segmental arches overhead; thin columns or
pilasters with
simple capitals (tops); pronounced front porches.
