Abstract
The Cafe’s northern gate led directly down to the Christian Quarter as well as to the river-bound tramway line. We often passed through this gate on our way to the student club, which was located in one of the buildings of the Zuhuri Quarter in the French District. This district was the gateway to the densely inhabited neighborhoods of the city. The site for the club was chosen so as to be as close as possible to those areas whose residents were supposedly the raw material and the natural objects of our political work.
