This elevator, which was one of the two elevators that connected the lower ground floor (or the street level) of Emirates Towers' retail boulevard with its underground parking garage (numbered as "P1" for consistency with floor numbering of multi-level garages next to office and hotel towers) below, was located at the eastern side of the main thoroughfare stretching in east-west direction, inside an offshoot of the hallway towards the office tower. While this also was a hydraulic installation like the circular main passenger elevator in the atrium, this one seemed to be a roped hydraulic instead of direct acting, but with the same speed as the main one. It had a very simple cab interior consisting of PVC flooring and metallic walls, just like the ones in the office tower garage. The overall size of the cab felt slightly larger compared to the office tower garage elevators, and was wider than it was deep like an ordinary passenger elevator, though similarly its ceiling was very tall for being a parking elevator. It had black rectangular buttons both on the inside COP and on the outside hall station, with a standard square-shaped acrylic floor indicator above the doors of each landing. It ran quite smoothly - in fact, one couldn't even tell that the elevator was moving except for a soft bump when starting and stopping - despite the interiors being slightly worn out, and overall seemed to have received more care and attention compared to the office tower garage units.
