fukdane 2 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I'm wondering who lives on the highest floor of a building here? My friend lives on the 17th floor of a tower and that really really does appeal to me, especially in Japan with earthquakes going on all the time. So, what floor you on? I'm on the 3rd floor of an apartment building. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I live on 51st floor. I work in an office on 28th floor. Infact, my building is one of the 30 tallest apartment blocks in the world as ranked by Emporis.com. I make sure I'm out when there is a fire drill scheduled. Link to post Share on other sites

SirJibAlot 0 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 22nd floor in a 45 storey building. If there is a big earthquake - i'm toast, but hey - I have a view of Fuji-san so that makes it all ok....hahahaha Link to post Share on other sites

SirJibAlot 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Charlotte, Here's the view (obviously, this wasn't taken today - today was pissing down rain!). Link to post Share on other sites
lin 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Good view. How often is it that can you see Fuji SirJib? Link to post Share on other sites
SirJibAlot 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Saw it just this morning - what a nice clear day! But the reality is, this view is rare...probably only a few days each month. Seems to be more days in winter than summer, Fujisan is very shy. Link to post Share on other sites

kintaro 0 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 5th and 11th floors (sendai and Honolulu). I love that view of Fuji san. I first lived in a little dump at the base of Mt. Fuji in Fujinomia city and have loved Fuji ever since. Link to post Share on other sites
xxx 2 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 5th floor of an apartment building. High enough for me that. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 2nd floor of 8. I reckon most flats on the 2nd floor are rented out, people prefer to live at the top (prices to buy flats go up the higher they are in the building). The two neighbours we know next to us both rent but the rest of the mansion is for owners only. Link to post Share on other sites
