Flat on 40th floor? Please don't wait for fire brigade
Mumbai’s upcoming high-rises, some as dizzyingly tall as 300 metres (close to 90 floors), are posing a new problem – their upper floors offer a spectacular and sweeping view of the bay, but on the flip side, they are not within reach of the Fire Brigade. In other words, for those on the 40th floor and beyond, the building’s internal systems will have to kick in on time before they can be evacuated amidst a blaze or a short circuit.
