Notes

[SM D5/2/2], [SM D5/2/3], [SM D5/2/11], [SM D5/2/4], [SM D5/2/10], [SM D5/2/12], and [SM D5/2/1] differ in some details but dimensionally there is a correspondence, for example, a north door to the museum 5 feet wide that becomes 4 feet in the next group of plans. Where the north wall of the rooms fronting the museum is shown, it has five openings and not three, as built.
