use the magic wand mask to select the window and then fill with black but set the opacity at about 60%.
Depending on the original photo you may have to touch up the edges of the window with a brush.
That should give a good effect

erm you'd probably have to get creative with the clone tool, i would imagine lowering would take more time and care to get it looking 'real'

you can use various different mask tools, the freehand one might be best and you can just go round the edge of your windows with it
