Charming Downtown Houston: Historic Facades in Sun

A photorealistic, high-resolution street view of downtown Houston on a sunny day. The foreground shows a charming street lined with historic commercial buildings featuring Beaux-Arts and early 20th-century architecture: brick facades, decorative stonework, tall sash windows, bold cornices, and wrought-iron balconies. Wide sidewalks host outdoor café tables, pedestrians, and classic street lamps. Lush trees and a few palm trees provide dappled shade. In the distance, sleek modern glass towers contrast with the historic facades. The sky is clear and blue; bright sunlight casts warm golden tones and long shadows, with subtle lens flare. The perspective is at street level, angled slightly down the block to capture storefronts with awnings, cast-iron signage, and reflections in polished windows. Rich textures and colors: red brick, cream stone, turquoise signage, green foliage, and sunlit pavement.
