contents In [17], we introduced ``picture groups'' and computed the cohomology of the picture group of type $A_n$. This is the same group what was introduced by Loday [20] where he called it the ``Stasheff group''. In this paper, we give an elementary combinatorial interpretation of the {\color{blue}``cluster morphism category'' constructed in [13] in the special case of the linearly oriented quiver of type $A_n$.} We prove that the classifying space of this category is locally $CAT(0)$ and thus a $K(π,1)$. We prove a more general statement that classifying spaces of certain ``cubical categories'' are locally $CAT(0)$. The objects of our category are the classical noncrossing partitions introduced by Kreweras [19]. The morphisms are binary forests. This paper is independent of [13] and [17] except in the last section where we use [13] to compare our category with the category with the same name given by Hubery and Krause [9].
