Elevator paradox - The elevator paradox is an apparent paradox first noted by George Gamow and Moritz Stern, physicists who had offices on two different floors of a multi-story building. Gamow, who had an office near the bottom of the building, noted that the first elevator to stop at his floor was most often going down, while Stern, who had an office near the top, noticed that the first elevator to stop at his floor was most often going up.

Elevator pitch - An elevator pitch (or elevator speech) is a brief overview of an idea for a product, service, or project. The pitch is so called because it can be delivered in the time span of an elevator ride (say, thirty seconds).

Elevator operator - An elevator operator is person specifically employed to operate a manually operated elevator. With the advent of of user-operated elevators, such as those utilizing push buttons to select the desired floor, few elevator operators still exist these days.

Double-deck elevator - Double-deck elevators are elevators designed such that two elevator cars are attached one on top of the other. This allows passengers on two consecutive floors to be able to use the elevator simultaneously, significantly increasing the passenger capacity of an elevator shaft.
