My impression is that, except in places like San Francisco where they
had really large communities, the Chinese mostly made do with the same
kinds of buildings as their round-eye neighbors, though sometimes they
added traditional Chinese decoration to the exteriors. Even in the
large Chinatowns most of the buildings would look an awful lot like the
structures in the "American" neighborhoods nearby. The exceptions would
be the temples and the mansions of the rich Chinese.
