building was acquired by petitioner and required no renovations.
It was composed of three areas, including one large room in front
(the North Royal Street side), a foyer with a staircase in the
back (with an exit to Queen Street), and a half bathroom. The
large room in the front was used to display the art work.
The basement consisted of a landing for the staircase, a
laundry room, a half bath, and two separate rooms that at times
were used as additional display areas. There was also a
kitchenette located in the basement that included a refrigerator,
sink, and hot plate.
The building has two street level entrances. One is on
North Royal Street and leads to the large room used as the
primary exhibition area. The other entrance is on Queen Street
and leads to the foyer behind the large room. The U.S. Postal
Service recognizes separate addresses for the building, one on
North Royal Street and one on Queen Street, and delivers mail to
mailboxes at each location. Customers of the art gallery were
expected to use the North Royal Street entrance and, when viewed
from that street, this was the entrance a potential customer
would assume leads to the art gallery. This entrance remained
unlocked during gallery business hours. The Queen Street
entrance leads to the foyer where the staircase is located. This
door remained locked and from the street did not appear
necessarily to be connected to the gallery. Each entrance
