Cupolas and belvederes are functional embellishments that crown the roof. They offer access to views, add dimension to the exterior, and further serve to bring in light and ventilation. Both quadrilateral and octagonal cupolas and belvederes are displayed. Added to the mix is a beautiful grouping of widow's walks and parapets.
