If you want a point and shoot, go with either the Rioch GX100 or the Panasonic FZ18. Architectural photography requires wide lenses, and the GX100 has the widest currently available on a point and shoot, a lens that looks the same as a 24mm one would on your typical 35mm film. The Panasonic only has what a 28mm would, but it has a tremendous amount of zoom on it, so if you need to get detailed closeups of fixtures on buildings, it might be the thing to go with it.
An SLR really would be better, though, because you could get wider angles, perspective control lenses designed for architectural photography, and if you need to do the closeups, a cheap catadioptric lens. It will be more expensive, but your results will be much better.
