My completely (totally ignorant) off-the-wall guess: landing gear?

It just seems so weird to see this towards the center-front on a 747. Sure they use it as a table, but why is it there in the first place? (I've only been on UA and LH 747's in the F and C cabins.) Plus, when they raise/lower the landing gear and/or use the front landing gear to steer the plane on the ground, it's a bit noisy there?
