Many California houses from before 1950-1955 have a too-small niche built into a hallway, where the phone was supposed to sit. But it's not exactly an entrance hall: it's a hall that all the rooms hang off of to the side: either all to one side, in the "railroad flat" kind of apartment, or off to both sides, as in the over-the-garage houses in the Sunset District. Otherwise, it's mostly an even split between livingroom and kitchen.
We have one of those telephone tables in the livingroom. Though we also have a phone in the room we call a library, and one in the parents' bedroom.
Mission Statement
Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
