These mahogany windows have stood the test of time.

Like any natural material exposed for more than a century: the cracks, the discoloration, holes and signs of wear are seen vividly in the darker wood (upper part of window) which is the restored part of the third floor dormer windows.

The lower part of window show the new wood that replaced the missing pieces and/or rotten areas of the 2 original windows constructed in 1886.
