Out Of The Fire, Into The Air
It’s kind of hard to imagine how faults like this even end up happening. While the balcony in the photo is railed off, so whoever is inside wouldn’t attempt to run out in the event of a fire, those from the surrounding apartments who try to escape using this stairway would run into a pretty nasty shock when they see that the escape is actually not complete at all. Hopefully this wasn’t left in this state for very long.
Please Do Not Try To Use This Fire Escape
So Many Stairs, Such Little Convenience
More oddly placed stairs, and more doors that open out into nothing but the air. In this case, it seems likely that the stairs were supposed to allow access to the apartments at each of the levels, and that the doors were supposed to open out onto landings on each floor, but instead, the stairs just go on and on, and the doors each open out onto nothing. One hopes that the doors don’t actually open on the levels above the ground floor.
This Is Quite Confusing
