There was an open-ended question on the 'Unusual Towers' page- How many towers are there in the world with lifts?
The webmaster has recieved a few emails from people requesting the answer, or just suggesting towers which actually have lifts. Minor Strikerz decided to see just how many towers in the world there are with lifts...
