I wasn't going to post anything because it seemed to whiny, but
I have another issue with the elevator.
The "thumming" noise creates vibrating echos that filter through
our walls in #501. No big deal, except in the middle of the night
when all is quiet, then somebody takes the elevator. The noise is
a minor nuisance, but the vibrations sound like an air compressor
jacked against the wall. On a 10 point scale, minor, but the
repititive nature of it all night long becomes maddening.
We presume that the problem will be fixed before too long.
