    My mistake.. comments are correct, diagonal elevators have been around for a while. I meant CABLELESS elevators based on maglev tech.

      Uh no. Absolutely no. I am not trusting new mag lev elevator technology... i trust the engineers to make it work but not the owners on keeping up on the maintenance.
      Well unless you got off a cable elevator and then used a maglev for those extra floors at the arch m.

      Unless it's built to sway like that of the high rises in LA and possibly NYC. They're built to sway a bit in the event of an earth quake, however something like this built to sway for earth quakes would be challenging to engineeres. The middle at the top where the two meet would be at risk of cracking from the pressure.
