This one-perspective, colored pencil drawing of the Building for the New Hampshire Fire Insurance Company in Manchester, NH demonstrates classic, American style architecture of the 1940s. The concrete (cement) building is large and functional - with many windows and a main entrance in the middle. It also features a circular driveway at its front. Several cars are parked in the street out front and well manicured trees adorn the lawn.
