    This elevator dates back to 1982. (I remember when the mall first opened.) Those fixtures are a little different from the ones that you are thinking of from 60’s & 70’s, and OTIS used these periodically until around 1990ish.

    Those are not custom-made. I was stupid in the earlier video. Those ones are typical of Otis elevators from the 60’s and 70’s, but it was truly rare to see them in the Lenox building elevator, which was built in 1988.
