The backside of the model is little faded from exposure to direct sun through a window that it is sitting in front of. I did not realize this was happening to it until about 7 years ago, so, I placed a big huge piece of blank corrugated cardboard in front of the window to block the excess light from hitting the model, so the light damage has been slowed somewhat. Remember, I completed this model 20 years ago.

The actual building was designed by the famous Lancaster architect C. Emlen Urban in the late 1880's.
