The answer of the given question above would be the third option. It is significant that Melville set "Bartleby the Scrivener" on Wall Street because Bartleby spends his time in an office where the only window has a view of a brick wall.  He works in a corner by the folding doors behind a screen and has a window that "commanded at present no view at all." Hope this answer helps.
