Answers to
Landmarks' Architectural Bingo

Following are a few answers as to where you will find each of the features from the Architectural Bingo Game. Don't be concerned if you have found an answer but it is not listed here. This page does not attempt to list ALL the pictures on which you will find a given feature. There are two reasons for this:

  1. Some features show up on many pages. For example, the ionic column is found on almost every page at this web site. See it in the banner at the top of this page?

  2. Some pages are permanent. They may contain a picture showing one or more features, but they will change when a special event is over or they may be removed at the end of the year. For example, all of the pages that relate to Preservation Awards 98 were removed sometime in the fall of 1999. So you may have found some of the features for your Bingo game on pages that are not listed in the answers below. That is OK as long as you are sure they are correct answers. If you have a question about the answer you have selected for a particular architectural feature, you may send us an e-mail telling us the name of the feature (for example, "double doors") and the answer you have found for it.
