Hammer Building Freight Elevator Repairs: Oct. 17-24, 2024

The freight elevator car in the Hammer Health Sciences Center will be temporarily out of service from 7 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 17 to approximately 4 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 24. During this time, please use the low rise and high rise elevator as needed to get to the desired floor for freight service.

  • Please expect longer than usual delays for passenger service while we conduct our maintenance work.

  • Consider using the stairwells whenever possible to alleviate extra traffic and allow accessibility access to the remaining elevators.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation as we work to improve our facilities. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact John Hession, plant superintendent, at jkh2149@cumc.columbia.edu.
