What are the sewers of MegaTokyo like?
How tall is Genom Tower?
Is there a window elevator on Genom Tower (one that looks out on
MegaTokyo), and how is it integrated into the tower?
And lastly, does anyone know what the mechanics of said elevator are?
As to Window Elevators. I don't believe genom towers is shaped like a
skyscraper. If they did have the Window Elevators they would only go so far
up before you'd have to switch to another one because from what i understand
genom tower is shaped like a mountain. Wide base that slopes into a Peak at
the top.
I can see an elevator that's at the center of the complex that about 2/3 of
the way up becomes a windows elevator.
What do you want to know about the sewers for? Please tell me this isn't a
TMNT/BGC crossover.

The sewers is in the second or third story of bubblegum crash. the one
with Adam in it. It seems like it is a normal sewers that you would find
in New York or another metropolitan city with high tech controil
checkpoints every here and there. but that's just my view you can check
it out with the tapes.
There is at least one window elevator for the Genom building the one
that we saw in Bubble gum crisis 6? it's the episode where holister dies
for the seond time. The mechanics of such an elevator are simple. first,
the elevator is moving at a 45% or so angle like a sidecar rather than a
normal elevator. possibly running on track and electric motor rather
than having a 1-5km long reinforced metal cable to pull it up.( one or
two miles perhaps?) It should go up to about 4/5 of the way up the
building at a rate of about 30 stories every minute. This should be slow
enough that people have the time to adjust to the changing pressure..
Most of the lifts take about thirty seconds to gain the 30 stories and
faster ones can do it in even less time. However, this lift is for
people wanting to get to the 500'th floor without pressurizing the lift
and all the intermediate floors in between.
