another trip to the "Chinese" site

...upon further investigation we discovered that our chosen sight is not a "Chinese" sight but in fact part of  "Old Greek Town".  The Gateway district was home to many different ethnic communities as well as a red light district that thrived for nearly a century and was illegal but "generally accepted as a necessary evil" until the early 1970's.

For more info. on the warehouse district you can download some great audio files here:
 

Here are a few more photos that interested me and affected my artifact:







...some things that jumped out at me about the sight:

-inaccessible access points
-strange access heights
-garage doors right on the sidewalk?
