I find it a bit odd that there aren't more buildings with double-story elevator cars and lobbies (lower car stops at odd number floors while upper car simultaneously stops at even number floors). Plus, it is not hard to stack elevator shafts atop each other with sky lobbies. We wait, stuck in traffic, or anticipating a subway/bus, for many minutes each day. It is not that big a deal to wait for an elevator (although perceptions of time are certainly relative, and time draws out when, for example, you are stuck in an elevator with a colleague that you don't like [uncomfortably staring at the floor numbers in silence, as your car ascends/descends])
