Description

Every year people die from falls from outdated designs of fire escapes. This is my building's escape ladder. Thin, painted rungs, short railings with minimal protection from slipping over the side or the landing. This is present throughout the city and needs to ge addressed either in code, or code enforcement, and possibly needs city financing to correct. The average person over age fifty or under age five would have harrowing experience trying to use the typucal SF fire escape.
