Waiting Room and

Ticket Room

The largest room in the building is accessed by one of the two primary entrances on the east elevation. This room contains the stairs to the second floor, connects the main building to the addition, and leads into a small entryway on the southern elevation. Interior finish includes narrow tongue-and-groove wooden flooring laid over the original 8” floorboards, beaded wainscoting, chair rials, and dry wall. Four one-over-one double-hung windows light the northern wall, and four more one-over-one double-hung windows that comprise the bay window also light the northern wall.  A scar in the center of the floor reveals the placement of an earlier partition that separated what was once the ticket area from the waiting room.  A small bookcase is built into the back of the staircase.
