291

A place where I can think aloud without fear of being misunderstood.
Ethel Montgomery Andrews

291 has weight and direction—and if you have any balance yourself you
will find that these two hold the equilibrium. Just above your scale of mental
capacity you will find the man who speaks, with great clarity of vision. If
you are able you can look beyond, when you have passed through “291”
.to a realization of the vital beauty of
today. The beauty of modern direction seen in a fire escape (through the
final window of 29i)+the weight contrast of modern structure.
Frances Simpson Stevens

291 is the Attic near the Roof. It is nearer the roof than any other
attic in the world.

There insomnia is not a malady—it is an ideal.
