As someone who has had anxiety disorders and phobias about heights, this looks like a torture device designed by sadists

Genuinely fascinating that this was built. I feel like anyone could have told the architect that this structure is off-putting, even scary. No one has ever had nightmares about the Bean. NYC really needed the staircase from Pathologic?
I have
Yeah, there isn't enough money in the world to get me in that thing
the fuck is this? just stairs and landings?
What is this thing other than a giant middle finger to wheelchair users?
it would be pretty cool with techno music and packed with people in fluorescent clothing
It would be a major fire and crowd crush risk when packed with people
Major fire hazards and crowd crush risks are very cyberpunk
Yes, but it would also be cool
A nexus by which The Old God's call forth their chosen harvest.
The ADA has entered the chat
Unlimited ADA lawsuits upon the architects of the world
Woah woah woah an architect designed my ADA compliant restroom
It’s also a middle to people who walk on the high line
Is it just stairs?
Maybe we could do a little better about putting up a content warning(CW) when discussing self-harm here.
Yes. I'm sorry I didn't CW my comment. Probably any discussion of the vessel needs a CW because that's like it's big thing.
Surely they've eventually put up safety nets?
CW: self harm / child killing
Not that they're perfectly effective, and there's a local bridge where a guy chucked his kids over the safety net
Can't spoil the aEsThEtIc with any safety or accessibility features
I think they have at certain high risk spots but the whole structure would need safety netting if you look at the pictures of it.
cool hope it burns down
fuckin thing's gonna give NYC the sand plague
It's like the senate from the Star Wars prequels
ghostbusters ass building
This just reminds me of that scene from Inception
