The changing windows in the rear

For those interested.
The photo below shows 2 views of the rear (east end) of the Borden house. The photo on the left was taken approx. at the time of the crimes. The one on the right was taken by MarkA. at the time of the demolition of the Leary Press building.
The only set of windows that remained the same was the two on the attic floor. The left one is the one in Bridget's room, the right one at the time of the crimes was in the small bedroom where Morse often slept. Today that window would be in the attic bathroom.
On the second floor the window to Mr. & Mrs. Borden's room is the same. The right window is gone. That was originally in the 2nd floor pantry when it was a two apartment building. That pantry was later converted to a closet at the time of the crimes.
The first floor has been changed, the kitchen window being shifted to the right. That may have had something to do with the construction of the Leary Press building.
