This the trace of a historical change. The curator in me wants a small sign that would say "The xxx building, 1885-1940" along the demarcation line between proud exterior and furtive ghost. But true curating takes work. Research: finding the provenance of a scarred brick wall is not something you can just google, you know. By the time augmented reality is pervasive enough to let you hold your iPhone up to this wall and see my blog post about it, I will have nailed it, though.
