Four elevators?[edit]

Who says that there are only four such elevators in the world? There certainly are more than four still functioning elevators that are not part of a building... Wikipedia lists more than four. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.100.222.241 (talk) 16:34, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The citation goes to a source which says "Today, Oregon City's municipal elevator is one of only four such structures in the world." tedder (talk) 16:44, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The citation no longer goes to any article. It only goes to a 404 error page. Also, a simple Google search finds many more than 4 outdoor elevators in the world. (I know self research is not allowed, but as this citation is no longer valid the reference should be removed unless another citation can be found.

Outdoor Municipal Elevator?[edit]

What is the definition of "municipal" that distinguishes this elevator from, say, the River Street Elevators in Savannah, Georgia, which are owned operated by the city. They are also outdoor and I find the following definition of the word "municipal" on google:

"Relating to a city or town or its governing body."

So, how is one municipal and the other not? BonPro (talk) 13:10, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
