Lady Ethereal Butterfly I also thought of the 70s when I saw this. Any ideas as to what the room was used for?

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly That walkway must have been lovely when the building was in use and everything was in pristine condition. Just curious, what is that diagonal line going across the columns in the center of the picture?

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly It looks like it would get really cold in there during the winter months.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly I wonder why they made such a small doorway. I know they used to make things narrower than they do now, but that doorway seems super narrow by any standard.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly Very curious. I'd love to know what that means.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly That's bordering on disturbingly creepy.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly It makes me wonder what happened to the owner of the leg. A prosthetic leg isn't the type of thing a person forgets to take with them.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly I agree with Larry D. It looks like the wall is slowly trying to consume the sofa.

	Lady Ethereal Butterfly I agree with the commenters that say it is reminiscent of a lighthouse. I love stairs like that.
