Colours are well saturated and the image is good and sharp. Very informative notes.
A viewpoint slightly further right and a little lower would have given a clear background to both arch windows in the centre and hidden the point of the roof in the background.
I would also be inclined to crop the sky to just above the tree on the left as currently the interest is almost entirely in the bottom half. The sky, although having strong colour, doesn't really add much interest.

Q? Is a bad critique better than no critique? A straight line across the middle of the canvas is a fundamental no-no. There is a blue cast overall. Including a random figure detracts. Architectural interest is blocked by the buildings behind the windows. Good notes.
Move around to find interesting angles. Sunlight and sillhouettes add a spark. ALWAYS watch for unwanted detail, i.e. people.

PS Forgive the lack of greeting, I was new to this
