Why the Open Windows?

Take a good look at this picture. The twin towers belong to the Prince Court. During our Magic Island walk today, my attention was drawn to the dark spots that look like several open windows on the towers.

Now, as one who appreciates comfort, I wondered if the windows were open. Obviously the units are air conditioned, and opening the windows would defeat the A/C’s raison d’etre. But who am I to criticize those who appreciate the sea breeze?

It was getting too complicated to contemplate, but fortunately the simplest answer is usually right. We figured out that the dark windows were units where the drapery was drawn open.

See? How easy was that?

Gotta agree with you. Don't think windows that high up will even open and if they do, they only open and inch or two~at least in high rises I've been in. May not be the same everywhere though!
