You're looking at the underside of a set of stairs in a finished basement. The door probably contains a furnace or a water heater or something.

    It depends. Are those joists cantilevered ? Do they go through to the front of the house? Then the 2x2 are just for funsies.

    I feel like they must go through, since there's no header board against the house for them to hang on.

    THE WIDOW OF WINCHESTER GUN WAS HSUNTED BY GHOSTS.. A relative said many decades later Winchester fell “under the thrall” of a medium, who told her that she would be haunted by the ghosts of Winchester rifle victims unless she built, non-stop— SHE BUILT ON TO HER HOUSE FOR DECADES UNTIL HER DEATH
