Suppose that $X$ is the homotopy direct limit of $\{X_i\}$. If each $X_i$ has the homotopy type of a CW-complex, then is $X$ has the homotopy type of a CW-complex?

    Obviously not true if you require finite CW complexes. Are you letting your CW complexes have infinitely many cells? Arbitrarily high dimension?2012-04-09
