It looks like you have a beautiful city judging by the nice pictures on your page. I like the architecture of the house.
Do you know when the Adams Building was built? It looks like it uses 'Elizabethan'-style architecture ( ;-),no, not saying it was built in those times! LOL!)

The Tudor-style Adams Building in Quincy Center was built in the late 1880s by brothers Charles Francis Adams Jr. and John Quincy Adams II as a commercial venture.
used to be headquarters (bottom level) to the once popular supermarket chain, Capitol Supermarkets, in the 1970's
