The management is redoing the hallways in our apartment house. They’ve decided to hide the cable TV co-axial cables within a plastic crown molding. The installation is, as seen above, in progress.
The original wood crown moldings were based on classical forms and were a way to hide the cracks that often develop in plaster-covered wood structure where a ceiling meets a wall. These are concrete slabs and gyp-on-stud partitions.
I’ll go this far: the moldings look better than the bare co-ax would. Beyond that, I wouldn’t even ask why because I’m afraid I’ll get an answer.
