Bull/Bear, the Crash,
and the Bowels of the Building.
7.a.i.
When
considering the urban myths attributed to floors thirteen, twenty-six, and
thirty-nine, a special note should be made about the layout of the floors
immediately above and below floor thirty-nine. Specifically floors
thirty-seven, thirty-eight, forty, and forty-one.
Architecturally,
there is no reason for these floors to be devoid of central offices and
corridors. If one could locate accurate
blueprints of the Jacob Center
Tower
The phenomenon
is less obvious on the thirty-seventh and forty-first floors as the diameter of
this inaccessible space is much smaller than the floors above and below,
respectively. It has been reported that as
one nears this middle ground one can detect the sound of ringing bells and a
clamor akin to the applause of a sporting event. This has led to a belief that this central
space houses a secret horse track and the bigwigs entertain large groups of
foreign investors at illicit racing events.
Suspiciously absent, though, is the odor of horse manure. This casts the horse track theory into
question amongst those concerned.
