If you lived way up on, say, the 63rd floor, you wouldn't have to park your car (Ferrari, or what have you) in a subterranean garage and then schlep your bags to various elevator banks. You'd just take the automobile elevator straight to your villa, in Fisher's vision.
Fisher says his innovative notions stem, in part, from not being burdened by old habits. "I never designed a skyscraper, that's right," he said at the press conference in response to a question. His work experience, he says, has most notably been in the area of construction--ports and residences, among other things--and he has also worked in development, real estate, and commerce. (He ran a marble and granite company.)
