This is the entrance to my building but you can see some steps going down which go down six flights of stairs to a street below. That's where my laundry room is so one way trip to the washer and dryer is 10 flights total x at least four trips. I get a good leg workout on laundry day. It's nice at night after 9:00 pm there are iron gates that are locked so random people can't hang out in the stairwell. Extra security. :)
