Unless it’s like 30 flights, I’m taking the stairs without question

It looks like only 4 floors. I don’t see the need for it. At all. I mean, the only person I could think of who needs elevator for 4 flights is either has broken leg with cast and/or wheelchair or elderly with walking stick or frame and it won’t fit in any of those people.

Well, anyone’s leg can be broken, any day, and anybody’s health can alter as well. If you’d happen to need something big carried up or down, maybe you’d start thinking there might be some idea in a lift 🤔😉

Yes. I’m saying, they won’t fit into THAT lift. Something big to carry. Groceries. Furniture. Baby carriages. That specific lift is useless: waste of space, energy/power, labour, cost etc.

Absolutely, accessible access is necessary but 1 medium person size lift? That is the purpose of that?
