If I recall, the first external spiral staircase building was Bastion's project at West Broadway and Maple. Since then they've cropped up in a number of projects, some by the same architects, others by firms jumping on the trend. They only service penthouses, so I can see marketing consultants saying that they're becoming an expected amenity for penthouses of mid-rise buildings.
