Krawiecka Street is located near the ghettos. Chana often sneaks off to this street to explore the House of Culture. The location of this place is significant because it is outside the ghetto. Chana is risking her life by escaping the ghettos to experience this place of music since she would almost definetly be killed if she were caught. It provides her with a small amount of hope and joy amidst the chaos that surrounds her. She tries to convince her family that "there was enough room for everyone, how we could hide there for days if we had to" (132).  Chana contemplates hiding here because it is spacious similarly to how victims of the Holocaust tried to or contemplated hiding in places similar to the House of Culture.
