Pro tip: the leftmost elevator is a utility elevator, and is larger but also slower than the other two. As such, the leftmost elevator call buttons only apply to the freight elevator. - Rob Morrow

Great use of green space, with benches and a nice walk along the river... Pleasant place to relax. - Bob Barker
