Innovation Universal fixtures. The original car switch is still present. The car switch still can be turned, but it is no longer does anything. There is a newer annunciator panel. It is still used when the elevator is in attendant service (the elevator will not respond to hall calls automatically when it is in attendant service). The elevator operator was very nice. I also saw a service elevator through a door, but I didn't film it, and it also appeared to be modernized (it had a digital hall indicator). Year installed: Circa 1932 Year modernized: Circa early 1990s-1994

Erin Wall, 44, Dies; Acclaimed Soprano in Mozart and Strauss Erin Wall, whose silvery yet warm soprano voice infused works by Mozart, Strauss, Britten and Mahler with luminous elegance, died on Oct. 8 at a hospital in Mississauga, Ontario. She was 44. The cause was metastatic breast cancer, Lyric Opera of Chicago said. Lyric Opera was an artistic home base for Ms. Wall, who received her professional start as a member of the company’s prestigious young artist program, now known as the Patrick G. and Shirley W. Ryan Opera Center. Chicago was the site of the dramatic season-opening performance that jolted her nascent career in 2004, when she jumped in with just a few hours’ notice to replace an ill colleague as Donna Anna in Mozart’s “Don Giovanni.” John von Rhein of The Chicago Tribune wrote in his review that “in classic showbiz style, she came, she sang and she conquered.” He praised her voice’s “wide compass, gleaming high extension and ability to float a ravishing, seamless line.” Lyric Opera’s music director, Andrew Davis, a frequent collaborator with Ms. Wall, recalled their performance of Elgar’s oratorio “The Kingdom” in London in 2014. “There’s a marvelous soprano aria in that, ‘The sun goeth down,’” Mr. Davis said in an interview. “And I’ve never heard anyone sing it more beautifully, with such ease and such poignancy. I think of her singing and I get goose bumps.” Erin Marie Wall was born on Nov. 4, 1975, in Calgary, Alberta, to two American musicians, Michael Wall and Suzanne (Hill) Wall, and grew up in Vancouver. She started in music as a pianist, but she was concentrating on singing by the time she attended Western Washington University in Bellingham. She later transferred to Rice University in Houston. From Rice, she entered Lyric Opera’s young artist program in 2001. She swiftly established herself as a rising talent: a lyric soprano with a full-bodied yet agile voice and dazzling facility in her top register. It was an instrument ideal for youthful roles like Marguerite in Gounod’s “Faust,” which she sang in Chicago in 2003, as well as Mozart’s Donna Anna, Pamina (in “The Magic Flute”) and Konstanze (in “The Abduction From the Seraglio”). “The voice definitely evolved,” Michael Benchetrit, Ms. Wall’s manager, said in an interview. “The middle and lower parts became richer with time.” This evolution came as she increasingly took on Strauss roles that benefited from more tonal opulence, like Arabella, Chrysothemis (in “Elektra”) and Daphne. When she starred in “Daphne” at the Santa Fe Opera in 2007, Mr. Benchetrit said, the effect was overwhelming.
