we definitely need more sitting spaces in public...though mid-stairwell is an odd choice.

For a building with no elevators, it makes perfect sense.

That being said, as someone having a hard time using stairs (some issues with me knees) I know I'm very appreciative when there is a chair or something to sit on for a short rest.

I think that would have been designed for the women hauling 40 pounds of petticoats up the stairs with her lungs corseted shut in a room emptied of oxygen by the gas lights.

For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.
