in reply to Teejay • • •The image shows a three-story building with a gray facade and white trim, prominently labeled "MEMORIAL Demaine's CHAPEL" on the front. The building features a symmetrical design with evenly spaced windows on each floor and a central entrance flanked by white columns. The roofline is adorned with decorative molding, and the building is situated at an intersection, as indicated by the traffic lights and street signs. The street signs include a green street name sign reading "Garrison St." and a no left turn sign. A pedestrian crossing is visible in the foreground, with a red pedestrian signal light. The sky is overcast, and the overall color palette is muted, with the gray of the building contrasting against the white trim and the darker tones of the street and vehicles.
