Elevator System
A. Overview
CITYPLACE I features 18 main passenger elevator cabs grouped into three separate elevator banks. The elevator system serves the low-rise floors atrium-12, mid-rise floors 15-27, and high-rise floors 28-38. The cabs are dispatched for maximum efficiency at peak periods. In CITYPLACE I, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. are the up-peak hours and 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. are the down-peak hours. During up-peak hours, the cabs in each elevator bank travel from the lobby to the highest call and then return to the lobby. During down-peak hours, the cabs are dispatched from the top floors to the lobby. At all other times, the elevator cabs are placed on a balance system to minimize passenger wait times. When the cabs are on the balance system, they are staggered two floors apart. The cabs are dispatched from the controllers located in the machine rooms of the building.
 
Each main bank of elevators is connected to an emergency generator. This would allow for continued use of one elevator cab in each bank if the building's electrical power is interrupted.
 
In addition to the passenger elevators, there is a service elevator and two parking garage elevators. There are also a set of escalators connecting the lobby and the concourse levels.
