| adam_text | BEFORE skyscrapers forever transformed
the landscape of the modern metropo-
lis, the conveyance that made them pos-
sible had to be created. Invented in New
York in the 1850s, the elevator became
an urban fact of life on both sides of the
Atlantic by the early twentieth century.
While it may at first glance seem a modest
innovation, it had wide-ranging effects,
from fundamentally restructuring build-
ing design to reinforcing social class hier-
archies by moving luxury apartments to
upper levels, previously the domain of the
lower classes. The cramped elevator cabin
itself served as a reflection of life in mod-
ern, growing cities, as a space of simulta-
neous intimacy and anonymity, constantly
in motion.
In this elegant and fascinating book,
Andreas Bernard explores how the ap-
pearance of this new element changed
notions of vertically and urban space.
Transforming such landmarks as the
Waldorf-Astoria and Ritz Tower in New
York, the elevator quickly took hold in
large American cities while gaining much
slower acceptance in European cities,
such as Paris and Berlin. Combining tech-
nological and architectural history with
the literary and cinematic, Bernard opens
up new ways of looking at the elevator—
as a secular confessional when stalled
between floors or as a recurring space in
which couples fall in love. Rising upward
through modernity, Lif takes the reader
on a compelling ride through the history of
the elevator.
