Today’s Daily Prompt from WordPress: Elevator

It doesn’t actually ask for a contribution from photographers, but I thought I’d post one anyway.

Elevador de Santa Justa

Opened to the public in 1902 this elevator is designed in neo-Gothic style by Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard who was said to be an apprentice to Gustave Eiffel. Rising 45 metres from the Rua de Santa Justa in Baixa providing views of the River Tagus and the city. It costs €5 unless you have a travel card.
