Firehouse in Mexico City by 103 and bgp Arquitectura

The typical poles appear to be staggered [so the firemen aren’t dropping four storeys down a metal post] from floor to floor – and it looks like one pole is actually behind that vertical slit on the building’s facade [they seem to run along the column grid]. It’d be an exciting edition to the building’s facade if you could see firefighters sliding down that badass when there’s a fire…
