1957 - The Customer Can Be Wrong. The customer is always right, a famed merchant is claimed to have said. But those entering Binn's Store, Middlesborough, England, can be pardoned if they look up and are wrong. There is a new elliptical staircase that spirals upward for five flights with no visible support. Made of strongly reinforced concrete, it was cast in position flight by flight.
