There are a lot of things I do like about this building. I like character. I like it that the building isn’t modern sterile. I like our blue doors.
The building has decades’ worth of no longer used enhancements that aren’t worth the moment’s thought I give them. Like the hook in the corner of the hall. Why? What was it used for?
The landing in the first pic is a perfect place for a Grateful Dead poster. I don’t even listen to the Grateful Dead, but I recongize this fact, which is so apparent it’s a wonder this truth hasn’t been fulfilled. (If I step out in the hall day after tomorrow and see a Grateful Dead poster up there I’ll be totally freaked.)
I promised myself I wouldn’t write text that wouldn’t fit in the picture page. I failed that promise.
Correction: I discovered later that the landlord had nothing to do with the trophies. They were placed there by a neighbor as, I guess, a sort of altar.
