And this is opened from probably six up all the way from the ground floor and it's domed on the inside and everything. And I get a feeling of double corridors on both sides. 01: Page 2 is kind of like a view of the way the staircase starts out and it just keeps sweeping back on itself, corridors on both sides and the main entrance is just facing the staircase. It's almost like a ramp. It's just a long, slow sweeping type of carpeted entrance, with a lot of gray stone and marble and stuff inside. It's a real old building. The only reason why there's not more detail is that this is kind of a macro approach to whatever the problem is. That's the best I can do.
