The dartboard on the wall is still there, and you can imagine the darts have taken some rather unpredictable trajectories. A narrow stage for concerts, a foosball table where balls clatter, a backyard that, following a row of recycling bins, leads you to a nice billiards room. But ultimately, there's just something missing...
