 Editor of Tall Towers: Your comment on Bank streets invisible doors is something which should pc given more than mere glance found the entrance n ficulty the other morning was about to retrace my steps home when someone who had been initiated hto the mystery of locating the door directed me to the proper entrance. The architect may economze on space but he adds nothing to the mental comfort o harrassed visitors It is bad enough to be numbered and under official orders to report for Worko-eat-to- live assignment without being puzzled by doors sug- gest that readable signs be posted to aid other callers They would be improvement over the present desig- nations and "detour signs" Factory worker
