English term or phrase: converted from the high ceilings
The morning was humid and quite warm; an autumnal storm had swept the city the day before and the sky was still overcast.
We walked along the Corso’s narrow kerb, avoiding puddles and looking for a place to talk.
We finally decided to sit in a rather trendy bistro-café, which had an upper level ** converted from the high ceilings ** of the old building it occupied; we sat there to have some peace and quiet from the busy city life just outside.
