    There's a 12 story tower in New Bedford, MA that has 4 elevators all manually controlled (elevator operators) with an up/dn lever, not even buttons. Used to be my favorite elevators as a child. My grandmother would always take me. =)

    Very impressive! Interesting spin on things: one of Monarch's employees left to found Southern Elevator in 1949. Monarch was based out of Greensboro, NC. I suspect Salem was possibly one of their distributors at the time.

    nice elevator, what is wrong with the wooden door?

    • @andrewsstation6436
      @andrewsstation6436 5 лет назад

      It was probably very temperamental due to age and usage. I wouldn't be surprised the two chain-link fence gates are newer than the wooden ones.
