Abstract: We study the simplicial complex that arises from non-attacking rook placements on a subclass of Ferrers boards that have $a_i$ rows of length $i$ where $a_i>0$ and $ileqn$ for some positive integer $n$. In particular, we will investigate enumerative properties of their facets, their homotopy type, and homology.
