These were AWESOME Vintage Westies!!! I'm not sure if these are Selectomatic or not, as I couldn't find a Announciator panel, but I was a bit pushed for time to check out of my hotel. pnwelevator and Cherry City Elevators have both filmed here. These have AWESOME Triangle Westinghouse call stations!!!! I'm not totally sure if the inside fixtures are Westinghouse AE or if they got a PTL or Monitor slap on, but still very awesome and almost completely original if they aren't completely original!!!! This building was built in 1928, but the old elevators were totally ripped out and replaced with these in the 1960's.

Installed: Circa 1960's

It reminds me of the Providence Portland, Medical Center (Green Elevators) I know what the buttons look like when it was original before they got modernized by Montgomery KONE Vector in 1990 I believe. They definitely used to have these kind of buttons because the elevators where installed in the 1960's and the Westinghouse name plate on the door track.

They look like the original buttons in the cab.

Odd the external buttons are original but the button panel inside the car has been modernized. There was one in a building where I worked in the 1980s with the same buttons outside. The tech allowed me to see the equipment room. It had a DC motor selector, and vacuum tubes in the relay rack.
