All the public toilet-rooms are in the same vertical line in the center of the house. The back-air pipe is 3 inches from basement, where it is connected to the traps of six bathtubs and one lavatory, increasing on the third floor to 4 inches, and on the fourth floor increasing to 5 inches, and so continues through the roof. On the third floor there are four water-closets, supplied with a flush tank over each closet. On each of the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors there are three water-closets, two bathtubs and one sink, the latter not shown on the plans. There are no fixtures located on the first and second floors on this line.
