The similarity between the rockpile and the apartment in "The Rockpile" by James Baldwin is that both have a feeling of danger. Option C is correct.

"The Rockpile" is a 1965 short story by James Baldwin, taken from the short story collection, Going to Meet the Man. A theme of the story may be alienation, and feeling neglected. The Rockpile takes place in Depression-era Harlem.

"The Rockpile" begins with a description of the natural rock formation which provides the story its title.
