Ways Elevators Will Get Totally Insane In 2016

from FastCodeDesign.com

THE COMPANY BEHIND 1 WTC'S SUPER-FAST ELEVATORS TELLS US ABOUT THE STAR TREK ELEVATORS THAT WILL BE COMING AS SOON AS NEXT YEAR.

On May 29, the One World Trade Center Observatory in New York will open up to the public. To get passengers to the 102nd floor as quickly as possible, 71 elevators designed by the German conglomerate ThyssenKrupp will ascend 1 WTC at a rate of 2,000 feet per minute, or more than three floors per second. That will make 1 WTC's elevators the fastest in the Western hemisphere.

If you think that's impressive, you ain't seen nothing yet. We spoke to Patrick Bass, CEO of ThyssenKrupp North America, about the elevators of the near future. Although today's elevators are really fast, tomorrow's lifts will blow your mind.
