Di dalam ruangan seluas 260 meter persegi dengan tinggi langit-langit 4,55 meter, sebuah lapisan baja menambahkan level mezanin dengan struktur rangka independen. Ruang ini digunakan untuk pameran seni dan rumah teh bagi komunitas. Material baru dan pencahayaan baru menciptakan kontras yang jelas dengan sistem tiang lama.
