of the ground floor and second floor level congested. However, this will not be for long.
fronting the street shall be allotted for rentable

the rest of the floor levels are for car parking distancing among the heath protocols in
spaces with own toilets as well. An eight-person place, people specially the middle class
capacity elevator shall be provided to access to would be more inclined to have their own

provided for manual vertical travel and cars as a means of transportation keeping
emergency exit that shall comply with the away from crowded buses and public
