This is in the middle of a college campus (University of Kansas). For some reason, this pic kinda reminds me of a place out in the country; even the worn street kinda feels like a country road to me.
Yeah, that's generally how I see the architecture... but look at it in the right way, and the large boxy building at center could almost be a barn... the memorial at left a silo, and the tower at right a church or a gabled house...
Totally tangentially, I've read Anne of Green Gables and still have no idea what a gable is! I Googled it just now. XD
(In general my English vocabulary for landscape, flora, and architecture is impoverished because it was mostly my mom who discussed that stuff...in Korean.)

*innocent look as he casts out the Wikipedia trawl...*
(In all honesty, I was thinking of a house with a towered roof like the pic they use as an example for the Mansard roof.)
