I love them. Romanesque Revival architecture is one of my favorites.

Did you just said Greek?! At least my family is Greek lol. I like the third one (Ladvas Jewelers), it is so similar to the anicent thingy building on the mountain in Athens.

Not a great picture, but here is the Schiffman Building in downtown Huntsville, Alabama. It is one of the few remaining examples of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture in the state. Incidentally, the actress Tallulah Bankhead was also born and lived in this building.
