pumba, I see perspective every day of my life, for me this is not about perspective it's about a bloomin great lump of mechanical escalator flying through the sky on the end of a rope. |

that picture is all about perspective ...the picture is taken from the crane that is lifting the escalator and it is nowhere near the building behind it , making it seem too large to fit in the building. |

@Gerry, did exactly same, even too a moment to wonder if photo was distorted to make it look curved at ends. |

Of course there is an easier way, just bring the escalator up by the stairs. You need only two men, one on each end. |

Sweet! They're putting a Wonkavator into the new WTC. It goes upways, downways, sideways, and backways. Just hold on as we go up and out |

Those are the counter weights that help the elevator move - all elevators use them. |

That's the new slide they are adding for when the elevators stop. You can still zip out quickly. |

I kept looking at it and thinking, "How does an elevator make the curve?" then I leaned in really close, turned my head like a confused dog, and BINGO I saw the solution!
It's an escalator. |

Actually, that's just not any elevator, that's the new stair-elevator.

The "elevator" is a lot smaller than it looks, it just looks big because it's closer to the camera. It's all about perspective. |
