| 3. L-wing: general shots |
 |
 |
The L-shaped wing has most probably been a storage. Atleast wheat flours have at times been stored even quite long periods, so a big milling company has needed lots of storages.
|
 |
Nothing but empty space and graffiti. Even if the storage is quite large, it's relatively quickly checked.

A military row of support beams and former warehouse shelves in the basement.

 |
Somebody got cold? Here in the basement of an all-concrete building it's not dangerous, but campfires in the mill have been more fatal.
|
 |
Lift in the basement is like straight from a hallway in New York projects.
|
 |
Glimpse to light from the basement.
|
 |
Really, really dusty sign of the old lift.
|
 |
There are two lifts in the building, and this one is the older.
|
 |
The thing is not an ordinary lift where you press button and wait for the engine to drive. It has an operating stick with buttons what would move the thing up or down, like it was an electric winch. This special looking small handle opens the door.
|
 |
The lift is Schindler's.
|
 |
Looks like typical, old lift. But it doesn't have a single cable. Only one double chain.
|
 |
It really hangs from these only.
|
 |
Chains inside the lift.
|
 |
Contactor in the engine room.
|
 |
The other lift is a normal Kone.
|
 |
Basic lift relay cabinet before the age of microcontrollers.

Relays in focus.
|
 |
Engine is complete with motor.
|
 |
This lift is surprisingly new, considering the building was emptied in 1980's. It's probably modernised version installed into old shaft.
