The majority of Roslyn's public architecture was constructed during the first four decades of the twentieth century and reflects the popularity of historical eclecticism in their design. Most of these buildings reflect variations of the Colonial Revival style, derived from both Georgian and historic vernacular sources. In the historic district, the style is illustrated by the 1920-1921 Bryant Library on East Broadway featuring round-arched windows, a stuccoed exterior and a domed cupola; the 1928 Roslyn Presbyterian Church, also on East Broadway, with its portico, spire and swan's neck entrance pediment; the 1929 Carpenters Hall at 41 Main Street, featuring a pilaster-articulated brick facade; and the circa 1920 Roslyn Theatre on Tower Street, with its rusticated brick first story, and modified Palladian second story window.
