The maps below show the changes in the art gallery ground floor in 2005 and present day.
SAMPLE ANSWER
The maps illustrate the differences in the layout of an art gallery in 2005 and now.
Overall, the art gallery has been improved with the installation of a number of services and facilities, with some areas of the gallery converted for other purposes.
As can be seen from the map, the café in the rear-left corner of the gallery has been replaced by a gallery shop. The space for the gallery shop is smaller than the space of the old café, which allowed for a new lift to be constructed next to the stairwell. Meanwhile, the gallery office next to the café has been removed and made way for the installation of a new vending machine. Furthermore, the reception desk has been moved to the center of the entrance hall, and a wheelchair access ramp added to the main entrance.
Regarding the exhibition areas, the space for exhibition room 4 has now been divided into two new areas; one for temporary exhibitions and the other for children. However, no changes have occurred to Exhibition rooms 1-3.
