"The day of the fire escape is passing," Hamilton said. "Future buildings soon will have a fireproof central tower, where persons may walk down in safety. I recently challenged board of safety members to walk down the fourteen-story fire escape on the Merchants Bank building. They declined. The average person gets so dizzy he is liable to fall."
