Penthouse, living room from above

Looking down on the living room (see below picture for floor level view), which measures 690 square feet and is open to the floor above.

There wasn’t much I could do with the extreme distortion without distorting everything else, but I felt better when I saw a pictures online taken from the same perspective with the exact same problems!

*******

We attended an open house of the entire Pierce School Lofts building last weekend and were given permission to photograph whatever we wanted.

The Pierce School was built in 1895, bought by the owners in 2000 for $275,000 as a flooded and rodent infested shell and converted to condos in 2005. All the units are for sale, ranging in price from $359,000 to $699,000 for the lower lofts and $3,399,000 for the 9,500 square foot penthouse.

Palatial sized living room with steam radiators left from the good old days at Pierce School! I don't have any suggestions for the distortion either, but love that elk head and rack! V
