ABSTRACT:
A vertically movable bathroom can be moved between a plurality of vertically spaced user stations, such as the floors in a high rise building. In one embodiment a freight elevator in a high rise building is modified to include complete bathroom facilities that are accessible to disabled persons, such that the facilities can be provided to any floor of the building. The modified elevator also includes first aid supplies, oxygen, a stretcher, etc., to make such supplies available throughout the building. Fire safety facilities, including a self contained sprinkler system and an express control to cause the elevator to travel to an exit floor without opening on any intermediate floors, provide a safe means of egress from the building in the event of a fire or other emergency.
