So any way little story and some Big Photos. So last Tuesday night was taking out the trash. The trash drop in UP tower is in a little room and there is service lift there with a lock code. So when i go in there i some times press the button just in case the lift comes. Well that day it came !! the doors open on the service lift and there was button that said Roof. Well i dropped a bottle so the doors would not close and ran in my apartment to get camera and tell my flatmate. I asked her do you want to come up to the roof with me and see where this lift goes ! Sure so we got in and pressed "R4". The lift door opened and we were greeted by heat wave ( stronger than out side so thats very hot) and retina burning light. We were in the atrium of the UP tower. It was great and felt like a light house.
So after a short look around we decided to go down and head home. So got in to the lift that we had waiting for us and pressed my floor. The lift started to move but slowed it was stopping at R2 some one had press the button ! Arggg. The doors opened there stood two building security. We were in trouble now. They seemed shocked to see me and my friend. But they were silent, stood back as not to enter the lift were about to left us continue on our way down. You see it seems that often the workers and service staff don't get into the same lift as residents. Seems to be a unspoken rule. But as the doors closed a look came across the guards face. That was some think like “ Hay wait a sec this is our lift was going on here !!!” His hand shot out and stopped the door from closing. My blood raced and my friend turned white.
Then he said: “ would you like to see the view from here ? It very nice and open.
So we walked out there through a tiny service door. The view was great. The security must just come up here to look at time to time. I have to get back up there soon. So took some more photos with room mate and me before returning home

Well hope you enjoy them as I enjoyed going up there and seeing this.
