69 Goethestraße

Address: 69 Goethestraße

69 Goethestraße is an apartment complex of 22 expensive units divided over four floors, with several stores on the ground floor. The buildings entryway has a doorman who doubles as the buildings janitor and handyman, and in the back are stairs and an elevator to get to the different floors. A cellar offers storage space for each apartment.

On the outside, the building features a plaque in remembrance of Esther Weiss, an elderly Jewish woman who had lived there until being deported and murdered in the Treblinka extermination camp.

Alastar Mac Caoileann owns apartment 14 on the left side of the third floor, which now serves as a haven for Elisabeth-Maria Holstein.

The apartment opens up into a hallway, a door on the immediate left leading to the kitchen with a second door on that side opening up to a dining room. The end of the hallway opens up to a large drawing room, and doors on the right leads to a bedroom, utilities closet and water closet. From the drawing room, a small study can be reached.

The apartment has high ceilings in all rooms due to the era in which the building was constructed, and the windows have been covered up, with electric bulbs in old style lamps providing illumination instead. Carpets cover most of the tiled floor and woodwork and paintings ¹⁾ covers the wall, giving it a warm, Belle Époque feel.

The kitchen is a small one decorated in old style with wooden cabinets and copper pots and pans and a refrigerator built into a similarly styled cabinet. The stove is a more modern one from the fifties, powered by gas and lit by hand. The kitchen has room for a washing machine, but doesn't actually have such a device, leaving a bit of a hole.

The dining room's central feature is a large oak table, big enough to seat three on each side comfortably, with matching chairs. A fine china dining set is stored in a cabinet on the wall for visitors to see.

The drawing room features a slender couch which is long enough to lie down on, as well as several chairs, a coffee table and a smaller round table with chairs. There is a fireplace but it is filled with flowers instead of having room for an actual fire and paintings hang on the wall to decorate the room in a tasty, if somewhat overdone manner. A small piano stands in a corner.

The study features bookcases along the walls with various classical books. There is a desk and a comfortable chair, but no room for anything else.

The bedroom is reasonably sized and has no windows, being an inside room. It has a large four-poster bed, two large closets for clothes and a huge full length mirror, as well as two comfortable chairs to sit in. The connected bathroom features a large bathtub and a dresser with a large mirror.

The Utilities closet contains connections for electricity, gas and water while the Water Closet contains a toilet and a small sink to wash your hands.
