Adds Spaciousness: This stairwell and entry area with its three picture-type windows 15 feet high adds spaciousness to the Harris house, where upper-level living is featured. The stairwell brick wall is of the smae type brick used on the home's exterior, adding co-ordination between the outside scene and interior.
