Governor's Court at 113 North Church Street is a fine example of luxury condo living in downtown Greensboro. This tastefully done new construction fits with the architecture of the city. A 1,500 sq. ft., three bedroom/two bath unit sells for around $320,000.
We finally figured out why this picture looks like an artist's rendition and not a photo. There are no shadows on the ground. The trees look painted against the brick and portal motif. Additionally, not one person nor car is seen. It is as if the building is primed for Christo and Jeanne-Claude to surround it with brightly-colored woven fabric!
For the Skywatch Friday crowd, we like the way the sky is white on the left and blue on the right. Here's to a happy and restful weekend for all of us!
The colors in your pictures are so vibrant and strong. You must have a great camera and, no doubt, a sharp eye. Thanks for stopping by Monastery Daily Photo.

Beautiful place! Great detail in your image, but you took the picture mid day. Try it again in early morning or late afternoon for a different prespective and warmer light.

You are so right about the lack of shadows! I like how they maintained an "older" architectural style in the new construction.
Have a fantastic Friday!

I was looking for the words to describe my impression but You got it "like an artist's rendition"

My first thought was; where are all the people?? And so I read what you said. :) It really looks a bit like a painting, I am guessing it was at the middle of the day when the sun is highest on the sky!
Love the house, it has charachter and a great color!
Thanks for stopping by, and your nice comment! Of course I was happy to grab my camera! :)
Have a great weekend!

It DES look like an artist's drawing! I enjoyed reading how you figured out why that's so. ;-)

That's a beautiful shot and it does look like an artist's rendering. I agree that the architecture fits well with the architecture in Greensboro. Thanks for your visit to mine and yes that is my yard. Have a great weekend.

You're right, it does look like a painting! Love the colour of the building.

Uh, what everyone else already said...
Sigh, I should look in earlier so I can be the one to sound original.
Still, really like the architecure. And the building pops out against the cenemt and cement-coloured clouds.

Then again, no one else spells cement the way I do.

enjoyed your post...the downside to that complex that is overpriced of course is the lack of covered parking and landscaping...so barren and lifeless looking.
thanks for sharing with us and ahve a wonderful rest of the weekend.
