Unless it's built to sway like that of the high rises in LA and possibly NYC. They're built to sway a bit in the event of an earth quake, however something like this built to sway for earth quakes would be challenging to engineeres.

it will break under the most painfull weight (of the arch). It is not bulk enough to stand the stresses if the arch bend or move sideways even for 1 meter.
You can ride an elevator like that right now in St. Louis, MO USA just by getting a ticket to go up in the Arch. It would need redesigning to make it faster and more smooth, but it basically just starts climbing like any elevator then starts going up then over kind of like it’s climbing stairs.
True. I’m from St. Louis. At the top of the Gateway Arch the small elevator tilts then straightens up again then tilts again then straightens up again. It keeps doing that until there is no more curve.
This tower would replace the Twin Towers as defining the NYC skyline. Everyone in the world that never visited would know it's NY . Just like the WTC identified the NY skyline.
My mistake.. comments are correct, diagonal elevators have been around for a while. I meant CABLELESS elevators based on maglev tech.

Your other mistake was not clarifying that this isn't a serious proposal and was meant as a joke. It's art, not engineering.

He nows what he’s doing but doesn’t know if one of the pillars broke and the other one will fall or it will stay there like a candy cane
This twin tower would just fall on its own😂😂😂
Even after all that work of designing a tower that planes could actually fly through 😂
An elevator like this is used to get to the top of the arch in st. Louis.
Yes, there are small "pods" that move people to the top of the gateway arch.
Huh, I never figured you could actually get up there.. the more you know
@@sipjedekat8525 it has an area up top with windows for the public to go up and see the view
I can imagine each wing of an airliner making a clean cut of each tower with a single swipe.
Whoever the architect is for this, I can promise you they'll need to go into witness protection due to the sheer rage of the engineers.
Nah, the architect is already being bent by the engineers

I don't think the point of billionaires row is practicality tbh
Ignoring the flimsiness/thinness of this particular example, the arch shape allows the building to be twice as tall while being much more stable.
By combining them together, they're more stable than they're individually.
@@gabbar51ngh But still nowhere *_near_* as stable as towers 1/4 the height and 4x the sectional area, which would also incidentally be probably less than 1/20 the cost to build.
skyscrapers are shit design anyway, we should be building outward not upward

@@SaabJAS39GripenE......... So you think this design is aesthetically pleasing?

I’m not afraid of heights and just looking at this building gave me butterflies

They should also add a crossbridge near the top so they could travel easier. 😅
