I am an elevator technician for over 38 years in NYC. I work for one of the EMANY corporations. And actually they are the largest in the world. Having serviced and built units in some of the most prestigious addresses in the Manhattan, I can tell you, these custom made units, will present challenges not foreseen by the builders. And consequently will have unpredictable consequences for service. There is the possibility of good outcomes if they designate regular maintenance, during off hours, because once someone has an appointment and their Porsche is stuck on the elevator, they will change their tune. Especially if the tech is some 40 minutes away stuck in traffic. I for one would love to see that email.

It should be obvious by now that solving the climate and housing crisis should involved large buildings full of cheap starter homes that are cunningly designed with small studio, one bed and two bed flats laid out as perfectly as possible for modern life. And probably communal facilities for exercise, parking, storage and so on.

@liamness Жыл бұрын
I guess it's kind of boring. There are already a lot of videos on youtube about "missing middle" housing, so the solutions are known and they are not flashy. Basically, you build lots of 3-8 storey housing (smaller buildings do not offer enough density, taller buildings require more complex and expensive construction methods and materials) and build transit and amenities at the same time. It is not that the solutions are unknown or require innovation, it is just that this is not the way to generate maximum profit. So you need an entity to step in and take control of housing provision that is not focused on making money, e.g. government or non-profits.

You can be certain that Insurance providers will take a very hard look at a hole that penetrates floors and is hauling gasoline or electric battery powered vehicles.

Because the poor keep getting poorer and the rich are getting richer and real estate is the safest place to park their money and drive up prices.

Do hope they have a good system to keep the car exhaust from getting into the living space, plus something to keep the grime on the tires off the floors....

I lived in a 17th floor apartment with stunning views of Sydney Harbour and after a few months I never looked at the view, it just faded into the background.

I wish you guys could check on some constructions on Balneário Camboriú ans its relation to its colappsing beaches (in a way) or see how they are straighting up crooked buildings on Santos. It is just insane to reallign it with people living in it.

This is appalling. There is a shortage of affordable housing and developers are building for the wealthiest 0.1% of society. How much does anyone want to bet that when sea level rise causes Miami property values to drop to zero, the owners of these ultra-luxury apartments are going to cry for a taxpayer funded bailout?

Subjects like this tend to make me even less hopeful for humanity. It’s bad enough most of us don’t have conversations in person with our neighbors or each other. This is the ultimate in disconnecting from society. Dystopia here we come. Non the less it was a great video! Thank you.

Pretty sure it's just investment portfolio diversification for these brands. I still very much appreciate the video and all that, but that they're built by car manufacturers is not all that relevant to the construction.

This is unironically what they want eventually. We live in a world where to get around were dependent on these car companies. They want to make it so we never have the need to move around, just consume from home
