As the old wall between Maria's School of Dance and Olden Days came down, these rafters became visible. The roof rafters are at a slant, taller at North Grand Avenue and then slanting downward to the east. There is no insulation, as popular in today's times, but bare wood from the ceiling to the roof. At the bottom of the picture, one of the support beams with a decorative top can be seen.
