Disused elevator shaft, I assume, since there's no cables.

They do make elevators that use a hydraulic ram from below instead of cables/counterweight.

Yep, and for such a small building it would likely be such a hydraulic system.  However both systems have rails that run up the sides of the shaft for guidance & stabilization of the cab car.  Those are lacking here.

You can build a 15 story hydraulic ram elevator? Would need one hell of a ram. Anyway, not only are there no rails, but there are no exist from the shaft. Its unused.

It looks like a mine shaft, well the bricks are an odd color, must be easy to figure out what building that is, it looks old.
