Filmed on 16.07.2020.

For the preserved old mechanical floor indicator as found on the top 12th floor, please browse to 1:35. Originally, this staircase might have had three elevators from 1958 and 13 floors in total, but either when the left (formerly central) elevator was modernized in 2002, or the right elevator was added or replaced an existing one in 2006, it was removed.

MORE INFORMATION

This area in Pohjois-Haaga / Norra Haga includes what used to be the three tallest residential buildings from the late 1950s in Helsinki / Helsingfors, as well as five others from 1956-57 with 12 floors. Although the tallest from 1955-57 are Amurinlinna in Tampere and two 14-floor high ones in Turku / Åbo, the height above sea level and being on a hill make the ones on Ida Ahlbergin tie appear even taller. The name of the street comes from ida Ahlberg, who was an actress from Finland, and in 1958 it was 100 years since she was born. In the same area, there is also a 1996-completed residential building with OTIS elevators from late 1995.

Below is a full list of elevators in this residential area that I have been able to access (Two 1958-built modernized in 2017 are missing, and the rest seem to be all-generic modernization so they can be skipped):
