Mrs. Keefe needed an area to do geneology. I myself don't believe in genies. This is her work space. Under the desk there is a computer tray, and under that the CPU. The CPU has yet to be placed where it belongs in the hole under and to the left of the printer. elevation view
The desk top turns along the wall and drops to bench height at the window. The bench has file drawers beneath.
