How can I achieve to create a realistic building similar to the one in this photo?

I’m working on creating a realistic New York City map and have run into some confusion regarding how to replicate buildings like the ones in this photo, which was created in Roblox Studio by (@ArtBlox_406).

I’ve noticed that the windows, specifically the areas where the lights are on, also emit a glow. I think this might be achieved using point lights, but I just want to be sure.

I apologize, I forgot to attach the image. This is the image I’m referring to, created by @ArtBlox_406.

I’m pretty sure they just applied a building texture on a neon part. The applied texture has transparent parts. When they apply this texture on a neon part, the transparent parts of the texture absorb light while the opaque parts of the texture don’t.

I applied this texture on a neon part and this is how it looks:

If you want less bloom on the windows, you can change the transparency of the neon part.
Here’s the .rbxm file of the building I just made so you can get a better idea on how it works:
