I can't remember where I heard this but I was told that closets were often
taxed as an additional room and to avoid this tax, homeowners built
residences without them.

Subject: Old Homes/Closets
I took a tour of a historic home recently and was told by the guide that old
homes often do not have closets for a specific reason.
Before I relay the reason given to my group, I would like to hear from those
of you who may know--what do you tell the public about the lack of closet
space at your historic sites?
