ALL URBAN DESIGN SHOULD BE HUMAN-CENTERED

UNIVERSAL DESIGN IS THE PATH TO ACHIEVING IT



Outdoor lifts – instead of less costly, low maintenance ramps – are routinely used as the only way for a person with a disability to access a condominium complex, apartment building, office block or mixed-use main lobby.

They may meet code, but they are operated with a key that always goes missing.

They break down because they require intense maintenance.

If they are in a nightlife district with lots of bars, they tend to be used as de facto restrooms – for No 1, No 2 and vomit.
