[QUOTE="DDD, post: 616727, member: 35"] Trinity, your information is "on target" but what we are discussing (or disagreeing about, lol) is "do all units have access to a stairwell?" We agree that (as in 9/11 buildings had stair wells) that stairs or an alternate source of evacuation is needed. on the other hand, watching television shows based in Manhattan I saw a number of "top" units which were accessible by private elevator service. We recently stayed in a hotel where the elevator was an express to "our" floor. At the hotel, of course, there were emergency exit signs and stairs. Looking at private accomodations we are disagreeing on whether code requires a secondary exit method for "top of the line" units. DDD [/QUOTE]
