What is the name or address of the building.

(strike my last post - I think it's a Mowery)

[musicfreakcc]

@kwag4 It's a Palm Beach elevator - I looked it up in Florida's elevator database. In case you're curious, it's located near 1631 Riverview road.

I beleve it is a montgomery

[CaptainElevator42189]

Thank you so much for the brand of this elevator.

[CaptainElevator42189]

That's right.

[g4tech]

That looks like a Northern Elevator

[CaptainElevator42189]

Actually, these are Westinghouse elevators that were modernized by Otis Elevator.

[CaptainElevator42189]

It's not Canton, but it might be an Otis elevator with independent brand equipment.

[ElevatorMan2012]

Yeah not sure what this is. Could be originally a Schindler, by that indicator that doesn't light up by the door, maybe modernized by Otis, judging by that indicator on the side of the doorway with the two arrows and line in between.

Also, interesting to see a fire alarm signal that low. Usually they're about 3 times as high as that.

Canton Elevator.

[CaptainElevator42189]

No, Canton Elevator makes only hydraulics. This is a traction, and possibly a Montgomery elevator.

[NewAgeServer]

Well it might not be ALL Canton... some parts might be another company's.

[mintz515]

You are right, but it was Modernized by Westinghouse in 1987.

[starbucks95905]

Looks like an Otis or a Montgomery modernized by Otis.

[lumix14]

What is that thing to the right of the elevator in the center?

[NewAgeServer]

That is a fire alarm mounted REALLY LOW for some reason.

[KWolfM]

Wait...look at the old in-car traveling lantern. I THINK it used to be an US Elevator.

[CaptainElevator42189]

I think that's an Otis elevator, and is a traction elevator.

[MajorAnimalFreak]

Could be a Montgomery.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Possibly.

[elevator9917]

It's a Montgomery elevator.

[jack9547]

what is that covering on the walls inside. some kind of "elevator jacket'?

[musicfreakcc]

Yes, someone is probably moving in and/or out.

[jack9547]

oh, so they put that stuff on the walls to prevent objects from damaging the elevator?

[musicfreakcc]

Correct.

[ElevatorMan2012]

Wow, and that padding stays there forever? If it does, it looks really ugly.

[musicfreakcc]

No, it's removable. That's why most elevators have those hooks near the ceiling.
