When one considers a major building renovation, it’s easy to focus on spaces like corridors, lobbies, offices, guest or patient rooms . . . in other words, all the public-facing spaces. We would argue that right after the lobby, a building’s elevators are the very next public-facing space building occupants and visitors see. This course lays out the case for cab renovations as a part of an overall building interior update.
