Below it are storefronts for "MUSIC CENTER" and "PORTER REALTY." To the left stands a cream-colored shop labeled "Copper Pasty" with a pasty logo. To the right, a whimsical gingerbread-style building with icing-like trim and a pretzel sign houses a shop. Further right is a blue storefront partially labeled "UNI." Parked vehicles line the street in front.
