Looks like I've struck rich here! This is a Schindler Miconic 10 Elevator at 55 West Monroe, not to be confused with 55 EAST Monroe aka Mid-Continental Plaza. The low-rise bank serves floors 2 through 22 and the high-rise bank serves floors 23 through 40. As you can see, there are a bunch of call stations around the lobby area (besides in the elevator bank) where it's convenient for people to enter their destinations. Plus the car does stall for a little bit longer if someone were to get that particular car when they enter their floor from one of the call stations that requires a bit of a walk to get there.
MY THOUGHTS:
These are astounding! The voice sounds amazing, the call station layout around the lobby is also amazing. It feels like I'm in the future almost, just by what I've mentioned in the previous sentence and the overall cab design plus the unique fixtures on the COP. From what it looks like when I look closely at the call station in the bank, these were modded, but I didn't know the original brand was. One way or the other, I really love these beauties!
