projecting (window sill)
Explanation:
It appears to be a projecting structure that "stick-out"

A projecting cornice on a building has the function of throwing rainwater free of the building's walls. In residential building practice, this function is handled by projecting gable ends, roof eaves, and gutters. However, house eaves may also be called "cornices" if they are finished with decorative molding.

Thee section of facade between the vertical bays is punctured by 5 window openings per floor and is relatively plain with relief being provided by simple projecting window sill blocks and stone cavity vents.

protruding (sill)


Explanation:
yet another option ...

------

he windows on an Italianate house have a three dimensional quality that makes them resemble sculpture more than conventional panes of glass. Long and narrow, the measurements of the win-dow and its many accessories are carefully proportioned to the size of the whole house. The shape, as well as the size, of the window frame, for example, is as graceful as it is distinctive: arched, notched or indented, it is rarely just rectangular. Slender colonettes to either side of the window, a protruding sill beneath, a decorative shield above, and a squeezed pediment, segmented hood or bay cornice to top it all off, turn the window into a spectacular event, not just something to look through. - http://www.move2alameda.com/italienate.html

The divided light casement windows on the ground floor are deeply recessed into the walls, with no sill, Identical casement windows on the upper floor feature a protruding sill, and the windows are seen in the Frank Family photographs of the 1940s, indicating an original feature. - https://gis.anaheim.net/MillsAct/MA_Surveys/325_N_Pine.pdf - page 3

COMMISSIONER DAWSON: There is no sill on those upstairs windows?


BRIAN TAYLOR: The upstairs windows have no protruding sill. They have a sill board so we could keep the color line through the window so it has the appearance of a sill without the pitfalls of having a sill in that particular application. - https://www.cityofboise.org/city_clerk/030513/drh12-307.pdf - page 59

and some "cornice" examples ..

----

The upper part of the front side is damaged. In the centre, the curved part of a rounded niche is visible. The capitals of columns/pilasters flanking the niche on each side are also preserved. Inside the niche runs a protruding cornice. The left side of the block is also damaged and worn, and bears a carved rectangular niche. The right side, which is curving, is damaged and worn. The rear, which also is curving, is also damaged and worn. The top of the block is curving towards the rear, but is also damaged and worn. The bottom of the block shows clear signs of having been broken. - https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1179/0075891415Z.000...

Mars grocery store, Facade making use of pilasters, stepped parapets and cornices, Aberdeen, Maryland

In addition to the vertical edges, horizontal edges are also created through the use of parapets and cornices. Although parapets may also serve a practical function, such as screening mechanical rooftop and HVAC equipment, as well as mechanical penthouses and elevator overruns, Hampton has integrated massive parapets into the general aesthetic. Capped by protruding ornamental cornices, the overall result is a hard, well-defined, horizontal edge terminating the building against the sky.
