The 5 Story office building

This is a office building, currently unfinished inside, that is made up using the windows from 2 4555 sets. They inspired me to make this model
I intend to extend it by 2 more stories when I get my next 4555 set.
The office workers hate me, because this building does not have a elevator.
The apartment building has a elevator, but not the office building. As of now, the office building is really just a empty shell, with
no details in the interior. I really must get around to building a interior for it.
With one of the floors drawn out. This building was the first one I built like this, the apartment building
was the second building I built in this style. The 2 building have differences in how the floors are held up, in this building, there are tabs, whereas in the apartment building
the floors are supported the whole way across using 2 2x16 plates a side. Also, this building has a 1 plate offset, whereas the apartment building does not use the same way to solve the problem
of the baseplate being a different thickness than a normal plate.
Some pictures of the building whist undergoing extensive reconstruction. 3 more stories were added to this building, bringing it above the normal maximum hight that is allowed without having a
elevator. However, this building is still just equipped with stairs.
The view down the single stairway...yes, I know, my lego buildings do not meet fire codes...how many of yours do?
