I think the BD design should have included 3 exterior glass sightseeing elevators on it for 2 reasons;
1. The view would obviously be phenominal.
2. It would also massively decrease the "wait" time for interior elevators.
My idea was that there would be one glass elevator on each of the innermost part of all three sides (by the core of the building) kind of in the place where u see most of the construction lifts located. |

Do they really have three courses long enough without tapering?
Or is tapering no problem for suchlike elevators?
// edit some hours later
Yes,
- I looked to the pics of Imre once more and I think
it could be possible to install three long elevators outside;
- and because equal long outside lifts for material and workmen
are working currently. _________________ I feel sometimes a little bit skyscraper excitement |
