The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that all public buildings be made free of barriers to persons with disabilities by providing "a continuous unobstructed path connecting all accessible elements and spaces in a building or facility." Clearly, the Lever Building is in violation of the standards of the ADA since it has a grand stairway as its only means of public entrance.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the conclusion drawn above?
A.The Lever building's managers have plans to install an entry elevator.
B.The building was constructed in 1973, more than a decade before the ADA became law in this country.
C.The main entryway is not completely impassable to people with disabilities as long as that person has assistance.
D.The Lever building holds the city's largest public library.
E.Several advocate groups have held rallies protesting the lack of ramps leading to the building's main entrance.
I got stuck. I am not able to attack this CR questions. Can anyone help me to eliminate wrong answer choices and pick the right one here by explaining each answer choices elaborately.
I found A correct as per the choices "The Lever building's managers have plans to install an entry elevator "that means the building doesnot have a continuous unobstructed path connecting all accessible elements and spaces in a building or facility. The building only has a grand stairway as its only means of public entrance. So it supports the conclusion that the Lever Building is in violation of the standards of the ADA since it has a grand stairway as its only means of public entrance.
I found B correct as per the "The building was constructed in 1973, more than a decade before the ADA became law in this country." As the building was built before ADA law was passed so the building not require to adhere to the law passed by ADA.This means that the building doesnot have a continuous unobstructed path connecting all accessible elements and spaces in a building or facility. The building only has a grand stairwayas its only means of public entrance. So it supports the conclusion that the Lever Building is in violation of the standards of the ADA since it has a grand stairway as its only means of public entrance.
