Does projection onto a finite dimensional subspace commute with intersection of a decreasing sequence of subspaces: $\cap_i P_W(V_i)=P_W(\cap_i V_i)$?

Question

Let $V$ to be an infinite dimensional linear space over some field $k$.

(you can take $k=\mathbb{C}$, or further assume $V$ is a complex Hilbert space).

And assume $W$ is a finite dimensional subspace of $V$, and denote the projection from $V$ to $W$ by $P_W$.

Let $V_1\supseteq V_2\supseteq V_3\supseteq\cdots$ be a decreasing sequence of subspaces of $V$, denote $V_{\infty}=\cap_{i=1}^{\infty}V_i$.

Since $\{P_W(V_i)\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ is a decreasing sequence of subspaces of the finite dimensional space $W$, then it would be stable after some sufficient large $j$, i.e, $P_W(V_{j})=P_W(V_{j+1})=\cdots :=\lim_iP_W(V_i)$.

My question is:

$$\lim_iP_W(V_i)=P_W(V_{\infty})?$$ Any counterexamples?

Remarks:

1, Note that $P_W(V_i)\neq V_i\cap W$, $W\cap (W_1+W_2)\neq W\cap W_1+W\cap W_2$ in general for linear subspaces $W, W_1, W_2$.

2, The nontrivial case is all the $V_i$ have infinite dimension.

3, If $V, V_i's$ are all Hilbert spaces, we think $P_W$ as the orthogonal projection.

Answer 1

Let $(e_1,e_2,\ldots)$ be an orthonormal basis for a Hilbert space $V$, let $V_k=\{e_1,e_2,\ldots,e_k\}^\perp$, and let $W$ be the span of $\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty\dfrac{1}{n}e_n$. If $P_W$ is orthogonal projection onto $W$, then $P_W(V_k)=W$ for all $k$, but $V_\infty=\{0\}$.
