Is it purely decorative and the long glass panel at the top of steps is a window and not a door?
I think you’re right. If you look at the “stairs” up close, they do not look strong enough for holding weight.
Yeah like fiberglass mockup. probably to just make these look like Brownstone fronts
Such an odd design choice. It looks like there’s already a patio, why not lower the patio and have actual functional stairs leading down to it? Looks pretty silly to just have floating fake stairs.
Or…you know…just give them like 40% more fucking patio space instead of ugly useless steps to nowhere.
Preparing for rising water levels?
The most logical and therefore most unlikely explanation.
Suicide steps for when you realize what you actually paid for downtown Vancouver homes…
It’s where the cool people can hang out and look cool.
Actually though it’s probably something along the lines of plans changing last minute but they already built the steps and framed the door so they just left them there.
That’s gonna end up looking like shit.
Too late.
As you can tell by the assemblage of other random angular shit, these are constructed in the modern five-over-one style, where everything is a big dumb box and desperately tries not to look like a big dumb box. Because god forbid they add any external shapes that do anything, like guide water away from entry points.
