Two Views of the Front Room
Here we see the fireplace where Wolfe burned the dictionary, a window where an escape was made, and, through the opened door, a glimpse of the elevator and the stairway to the upper floors.
It is possible to enter the office from this room, but often Archie prefers to leave it closed (the room is sound proofed) and go back around by the hall. We see that there is a bathroom, but not much in the way of either room or furniture. Archie tells us that since Wolfe didn't use it, he didn't give much of a hoot what was in it.
