Pretty sure the point of the article is that elevators is an example of how the construction industry has become very expensive in US not that elevators in themselves are the problem.
- twelve40 2y agomaybe... construction is expensive, yes, but a bigger problem is that for example in my 'hood there are exactly 0 lots for sale. The sprawl model - which has been aggressively pursued for at least half a century - by now seems to have eaten up all the land in any sane commute reach. Elevators have been purposely avoided for many decades now and not because of their cost.
