4x Otis Low Zone Elevators @ One Business Bay, Za'abeel, Dubai, UAE

This office building is one of the earliest high-rises to be built in Dubai's Business Bay district, and is also the maiden project of Omniyat, one of the newer real estate development companies in the region; in fact the firm is headquartered on the building's 26th floor. The building, which consisted of 35 above-ground floors and three basements, had a rather unusual appearance where the floor plates became larger as it rose, and was clad in heavily tinted glass. All of the basements were used as a parking garage, with basement 2 used as visitor parking and basements 1 and 3 as tenant parking. The ground floor had a grand entrance lobby with a five-level atrium; a restaurant and several shops could also be found there. The first to fifth floors, which were numbered "podium 1 (P1)" through "podium 5 (P5)", again featured parking, with all floors reserved for tenants. A gym exclusively available to tenants was on the sixth floor, which was numbered as floor 1 in the elevators and in building signage. Seventh through thirty-fourth floors (numbered as floors 2 to 30, with floor number 13 skipped) had office space, with floors 22 to 24 featuring protruding decks and balconies, creating a distinctive appearance.

The building had nine elevators, consisting of one service, four low-rise, and four high-rise cars, all supplied by Otis. This video features the bank of four low-rise passenger elevators, which served the ground floor lobby, all podium parking floors, the tenant gym on floor 1, and offices on floors 2 through 16. They were XO-8000 installations, a high-rise model developed by Xizi Otis, with ACD (Asian Controller and Drive) controller sets. Their cabs had vinyl tile flooring alongside mirrored side walls and a hexagonal patterned acrylic rear wall illuminated in blue, which gave off a somewhat dreamy atmosphere. They had surface-mounted BR32C(B) buttons and segmented floor indicators, though that the way the vertical indicators were mounted inside much wider 10.4-inch covers suggested that they had replaced former TFT LCD displays. While they ran quite smoothly, they seemed to be on the slow side for 21 floors.
