(De)construction continues on the apartment and it’s a big ol dusty mess in there. We have a closet in our bedroom that goes underneath the front sidewalk, and I’d always figured that closet was not original to the building. But once the dry wall came out of that closet, we could see the brick work and I realized that it had been there all along. It was probably part of the way coal was delivered and stored for the house.
Take a look at these pictures. You can see arches in the doorway to the closet and also in a wall at the end of our tub. That arched opening was covered over with dry wall. I wish there were a way to have those arches show but that would require reconfiguring our entire bathroom and that’s not in the budget.

love the arches! Too bad they didn't think to leave those exposed!
I'm with Jen - pity you can't do it now, but perhaps another time, or at least tell future occupants that they are there.
