There's an elliptical in the ballroom and a pilates reformer in the lobby.

I think the floor 23 button is the most irritating

My feeling is that is what they wanted to solve. There might be multiple ground floors due to this being a big building and most likely have entrances at different levels. Maybe both the Lobby and Concourse have entrances. I’m just guessing. But even if this is true, it doesn’t make it any less hideous in their execution…

For once, I don't see the problem here. It's typical in American elevators to mark the ground floor as "*L" instead of "1". This elevator actually goes beyond the customary by spelling out "Lobby" for "L", "Ballroom" for "BR", etc. I'm guessing this is a hotel, and most hotels have floor buttons like "L" and "M" with no further clarification because you are expected to know that "M" means "Mezzanine" and what a mezzanine is. This is cultural knowledge. Are you going to be mad when you go to Germany and floor button "1" takes you to the 2nd floor?

All the floor buttons are in order. No floor button is mislabeled. Higher floors are always above lower floors. Floor 13 is missing but that's cultural too. Floor 23 is bigger to show its importance, because there is probably a rooftop restaurant or some shit. Looks good to me!

Art Hall must have done pretty well to have his own floor.

Ha! I worked in one of those German-like buildings. In Quebec. Every other building in town goes L, 2, 3...

Ours did L, 1, 2... (well, we do RC for L, but you get the idea)

Turned into like 50% of my job to clear up the confusion.

23 sticks out over the edges of 22, builders couldn't measure

Goddamn it, that's hideous. Imagine being late for an important appointment, you finally get to the building, run through the lobby to the elevator and then...

At least blind ppl can use all of the black buttons, so that is something. Sucks for them to find to the lobby tho

MrScottyTay 4 points 3 years ago

Star L is the lobby button, I don't think the long labels are buttons at all. So if they equate feeling an L like shape as the lobby a blind person can still use this. Although obviously Braille is always best.

Kuma 2 points 3 years ago

Oooh, I missed that completely. The design is so weird I was sure the white buttons where actually buttons. Then that is all good! :D it looks like the black buttons got braille on them but I am unsure

MrScottyTay 1 point 3 years ago

Oh yeah they do, I wrote my last comment thinking of the image from memory and didn't notice the braille. I'm certain the white ones are actually lights to show where the elevator is currently at because the buttons themselves don't light up
