ThyssenKrupp Traction Elevator @ Roanoke Community Hospital Roanoke VA

This is the main elevator in the hospital. This hospital is no longer really a hospital. there is an urgent care center on the 1st floor and most of the upper floors are being converted into dorm rooms. Roanoke Memorial has pretty much replaced this obsolete hospital. VERY ANNOYING dover buzz! here is a pic of the building and you can see the elevator shaft of the front http://flickr.com/photos/dieselducy/3254511752
