On the dime landing
On the dime landing
Hi
What is the meaning of "on the dime landing" in the following sentence?
He peered about for a long time on the dime landing before he found the name he wanted written obscurely on one of the doors.

I think this could this be a misprint for
on the dim landing
LATER
I've googled the quote. And yes, the word is indeed dim.
Hi
thanks, you are right as always, it is "dim" not " dime"
But It was not my fault, I saw that sentense in some pages in the internet, for example in the following link line 23.
