ascending an escalator in a department store was moving in a space entirely captured and formedby industrialism
If it weren't for industrialism they would just be there in that space without the ability that these developments have given them. Holiday gift shopping would be such a different experience in downtown Chicago if elevators didn't exist.. I honestly think people would spend less because they wouldn't want to climb the stairs to additional stores to "just see what's in there".

Is this just becoming more of a competition between who ends up with control? I thought we were working towards beneficial social and urban reform here..
