Palazzo Bevilacqua, headquarters of the state technical institute Ippolito Pindemonte is one of the four buildings in Verona designed by Michele Sanmicheli. Probably erected around 1534, the palace was left in an unfinished state, as can be seen from the asymmetrical position of the portal in respect to the part of the façade that has been erected. The ground floor is carved in stone, subdivided by pillars bearing busts of Roman warriors and with windows set in low arches. The top floor on the other hand, has four windows alternating with three doors, all surrounded by a large balcony balanced with very ornate, Greek-style voluted ledges.
