    For once, I don’t see the problem here. It’s typical in American elevators to mark the ground floor as “*L” instead of “1”. This elevator actually goes beyond the customary by spelling out “Lobby” for “L”, “Ballroom” for “BR”, etc. I’m guessing this is a hotel, and most hotels have floor buttons like “L” and “M” with no further clarification because you are expected to know that “M” means “Mezzanine” and what a mezzanine is. This is cultural knowledge. Are you going to be mad when you go to Germany and floor button “1” takes you to the 2nd floor?

    All the floor buttons are in order. No floor button is mislabeled. Higher floors are always above lower floors. Floor 13 is missing but that’s cultural too. Floor 23 is bigger to show its importance, because there is probably a rooftop restaurant or some shit. Looks good to me!

      Ha! I worked in one of those German-like buildings. In Quebec. Every other building in town goes L, 2, 3…

      Ours did L, 1, 2… (well, we do RC for L, but you get the idea)

      Turned into like 50% of my job to clear up the confusion.

      Art Hall must have done pretty well to have his own floor.
