A nearer view of the big window in the office. Over one hundred years old, it’s about 6 feet wide and over 7 feet high. Believe it or not, still it opens smoothly (check out those big handles), and I can open it whenever I want! The thing comes equipped with an old-fashioned roller blind, which, at certain hours and seasons, is necessary to use. Because it’s a landmarked building, no other window coverings are allowed.
