I swear I think the whole world has lost it’s collective mind.

Well, that helps to explain Spain’s 25% unemployment rate. Who wants to hire a Spanish architect, engineer, or construction firm?

What a bunch of maroons.

I’d laugh but I’m sure we could find similar things in our country.

Well I can think of two remarks. One rent above the twentieth floor ought to be cheap. Two, I am sure that the commie news over here would cite it as a good thing since it would explain how Europe is some fit.

Drop cables from that bridge thingy between the towers and make an elevator.

Really, you can’t do anything?

Just take apartment A on each floor and turn it into an elevator shaft. I can’t think a 10x10 hole in each floor would be hard or ruin the structural stability.

269 units- if for 2 towers at 20 floors , that would mean taking out 40 units… ouch.

There are special rules and regulations for elevator shafts, etc. They would also need to do a structural analysis for the elevator shaft that would cost a pretty penny.

Here is a better idea: exterior elevator shaft.

At least it wasn’t in China . . . :eek:

Well, actually, no elevators wouldn’t be a problem in that particular building as every apartment is on the ground floor. :smiley:

True dat! :stuck_out_tongue:

I wonder if there was anyone in the similar neighboring buildings who’s first thought wasn’t the Chinese equivalent “Pack, we’re getting the **** out of here now.”
