A quote:

> What would I do? I’d think about the Central Bank of Ireland, a magnificent work of performance
> architecture by the late Sam Stephenson. The building was constructed around a pair of
> reinforced concrete lift shafts. Working at ground level, they built one floor of the building, and
> then they winched it up to the top of the lift shafts and pinned it into place. The building
> appeared to be growing downward from the Dublin sky. At each step, they did the construction
> at the lowest level possible, then shifted it to where they needed it.
