Re-order Paragraphs
Arrange the sentences into the correct order.
Put the sentences in the correct order:
- The industry is now moving toward cable-free systems that let multiple cars operate in a single shaft, a shift that could reshape building design just as dramatically as the original safety brake did.
- More recently, manufacturers have refined the technology further by installing sensors that call an idle elevator to a floor before a resident even presses the button, based on learned movement patterns.
- With that fear removed, architects began designing taller buildings, and city skylines started climbing upward rather than only sprawling outward.
- This changed when a safety brake was introduced that could stop an elevator car from falling even if its lifting cable snapped, finally making vertical travel trustworthy enough for the public.
- Before the mid-nineteenth century, buildings rarely exceeded five or six stories, since climbing any higher on foot was impractical for daily use.
