There was one in the very small ground floor car park of an office I worked in between 1979 and 1984. IIRC there was also one on the Norwich Union Building which used to look over City Square in Leeds. My Uncle worked there in space leased to Post Office Telephones. Car park was on roof with a turntable. To turn cars around to enter lift to ground.
Some single ended Caledonian MacBrayne ferries serving very sparse routes still have them.
