A comment on How air-conditioning created the modern city. Parent comment
Some examples:
- I biked to work. Carrying my bike up 5 stories of narrow stairs, bumping into everything, every evening was not a fun way to end my day.

- It makes coming and going feel like a sizable task.
That said, I still preferred it over a lower floor, because it meant no noise from above and less street noise.
