Elisha Graves Otis invented the first safety elevator in New York City on March 23, 1853. It used a steam-powered rope with toothed guide rails and catches to stop the elevator from falling in the event the rope broke. The safety elevator was first installed and demonstrated at Broadway in New York City.
