Could someone please explain elevators?

I built a new building on a generic lot and added an elevator. I'm pretty sure that I built it correctly (2x2 shaft, free space in front of the door), but I cannot get the elevator work. Are elevators just for looks? And if so, why can we only have 1? (I have the elevator on the 1st floor, but it's just an empty shaft on the 2nd and 3rd) Can you use elevators with other types of lots? Other neighborhoods? Thanks for any info.

    I guess only in the penthouses in San Myshuno then. Thanks for answering. I don't mind them being for show, although it would be nice if they worked. I do wish that since they don't work anyway, that we could at least put one on each floor. I will have to completely redesign my building due to the empty spaces where I thought the elevator would be. Btw, there is a mod for them, but I don't use cc, so that's a no go for me. Thanks again.

    Hm. I have not really played with elevators, but they are more for show. They teleport you to the next floor, more or less. I assume to teleport properly they put a bunch of restrictions on them.

    They only work in penthouses in San Myshuno. They work more like a portal. Unless they've added or changed something I'm unaware of. There might be a mod out there to make them work?
