Another excellent submission to ELEVATOR WORLD’s 2014 Photo Contest by David W. Fried of Van Deusen & Associates, the photo here was taken in the hoistway of the iconic Empire State Building elevators. EW has covered these installations many times over the years, dating back to their installation in 1962.
