There was one apartment per floor, and my apartment had four bedrooms. It is likely one bedroom was created from part of the living room, and another bedroom was considered the dining room at one time. The living room did look over the street, and the kitchen was in the very rear of the building. It had never been renovated, so it was in very poor shape when I was there, with crumbling plaster throughout.

When Louise refused to press charges of "seduction" against him, authorities sent him to Ellis Island for detainment awaiting deportation proceedings.

There were most likely two apartments per floor with the living rooms facing the windows, front and rear.
