What Am I?


Any clues what this thing is?

We found this lurking in the wall above a first-floor bathroom. It appears to be some sort of vent pipe. It's a 90-degree elbow, way up near the ceiling, and is double-walled, as if it needed to be thermally protected. That's it: just the elblow. No pipes connected to either end.

It's been boxed in and invisible for who knows how many years. My theory is that it was a vent from a boiler or furnace that used to sit in what is now the ladies' room. Anybody got any better ideas?
