Behind This Door

It's on a typical mixed residential and business block in central Montevideo and looks like a hundred others.  It's not, though.  Next to the garage door, the other one goes to a hidden cell area where, in the 1980's, the leftists held their hostages.  It was a miserable place underneath the garage - cramped and crowded - and there were always three leftist guards present, too.  For several years, the location was a secret - until it was raided by the police.
