Space between two typical 1890's buildings

Title

Space between two typical 1890's buildings

Description

The image I selected is of two apartment buildings right next to each other. The windows in this apartment building are tall and skinny, which does not let in a lot of light already and even more so since the window faces a wall. In Bartleby the scrivener, Bartleby's work space had a window similar to the one present in this picture. His window looked at a brick wall which in the story can be used to represent the idea of Bartleby seeming like he can have a future (the view), but it is cut short by the wall. This could also be interpreted as foreshadowing his death at the end of the story.
