Pet Girl's address indicated that her apartment was in the picturesque and cheapest part of the former barracks, a long walk from where we stood. And what got to me instantly was that Norma Johnson's home was within viewing distance of Sea Cliff, where she'd gone to the Burke School-and where she'd been disgraced.
Pet Girl's apartment was located in a scenic but affordable area of the old barracks, quite a distance from their current position. The setting painted a picture of a modest yet charming place, emphasizing its quiet, less expensive neighborhood.
What struck me immediately was that Norma Johnson’s home was visible from there, near Sea Cliff, where she attended Burke School. This proximity brought up memories of her past disgrace, making her current location especially meaningful and possibly symbolic of her life's struggles.
