The Wall

I had gotten rather accustomed to the large gaping hole in the building's exterior wall and actually dreamed of it being enclosed in glass to retain all of that sunlight, but as soon as the masons came in and started erecting the walls of the elevator sharft we started losing that light. The abutting neighbors were amazingly supportive, allowing us to use their back yard as a staging area for this important phase of the construction. They actually kept a watchful eye on the masons, seemingly fascinated with their work.
