EPIC 1978 Westinghouse Hydraulic Elevator At Ritzenthaler Building In Arlington Heights, IL

(08/05/2026 with ‪@elevatorsofnorthernillinois‬ ) This is the elevator at the Ritzenthaler Building in Arlington Heights. This elevator is a 1978 Westinghouse that’s almost completely original. It has the original dry-powered motor and fixtures. The cab was redone not that long ago and the door equipment was replaced with GAL recently. I love how the call station in the lobby has a Rotodial. Brand: Westinghouse Model: 2BCHYL Installed: 1978 Drive: Hydraulic Motor: Dry-Powered Speed: 125 FPM Capacity: 3500 LBS.
