1970s Mitsubishi DC lift in Hong Kong

Location: Conwell House, 34-38 Stanley Street, Central, Hong Kong Standard old Mitsubishi lift in a building in Central, further down from the refurbished Armors. This one is a DC-driven unit with a motor-generator set. Still quite a few of these around, but DC units are not as common as the AC-powered 2-speed ones. The interior appears to have been redone at some point, judging by how close the ceiling is to the indicator. Not much else to say about this one given I've seen loads of these all over Hong Kong, but still nice to see one of these in decent condition.
