: Mike/KC,

: I raised this question some time ago and I came to the conclusion that the door existed based on the Eaton and Haas plan on the inside cover of Triumph & Tragedy. I'm sure there's also a photo reference in one of the books somewhere. I'll let you know if I find it.

: Comparing the two plans comes down to a question of validity. Which was the more correct in this instance? The E & A plan lends itself to possibly being more accurate simply because the bulkhead is drawn with some depth rather than a straight line.

: Just food for thought.

David, in addition to my other comments I have since found some deck plans in Anatomy Of The Titanic of the -refitted Olympic- that does show a door going from their promenade directly to the newly added Cafe Parisien. Page 92. Might this be the diagram used for the book you mentioned? Anything I have pertaining for the Titanic does not indicate a door there on either side of the ship. Cheers, Mike
