It is a massive stone building with a large rectangular clock tower at center. Its walls are decorated with several columns and towers, and arch-shaped windows can be seen along its perimeter. An American flag flies from the top of the tower. Several other three- and four-story buildings can be seen packed closely together in the foreground at right.
