An Odd Place For A Doorknob
Over the years I’ve heard of really old hobbit-like doors in old cities that were short, rounded, and had the knob in the middle of the door. This is the first one that I’ve noticed (although not round nor short) in Raleigh.
It makes you wonder, what is really the advantage of placing the knob in the middle?

Maybe the designers are symmetry freaks? or maybe the added resistance is to work out those biceps? or maybe they think they are just too cool for school, “we open doors differently around here”.
