The object of the invention is an elevator, more particularly an elevator for passenger transport and/or freight transport, which elevator comprises an elevator car (1), which is arranged to travel in an elevator hoistway (S), above which elevator hoistway (S) is a space (10) bounded by a floor (9), a counterweight (2), a first suspension rope (R1) and a second suspension rope (R2), which suspension ropes (R1, R2) connect the aforementioned elevator car (1) and counterweight (2) to each other, means for moving the first suspension rope (R1) and the second suspension rope (R2), one or more diverting pulleys (P1) of the first suspension rope (R1) disposed in said space (10), one or more diverting pulleys (P2) of the second suspension rope (R2) disposed in said space (10), and in which elevator the first suspension rope (R1) and the second suspension rope (R2) travel on vertical planes parallel to each other, the first suspension rope (R1) forms a loop (A) around one or more diverting pulleys (P1) of the first suspension rope (R1), the second suspension rope (R2) forms a loop (B) around one or more diverting pulleys (P2) of the second suspension rope (R2), said loops (A, B) are nested and the diverting pulley (P1) of the outer loop (A) is disposed outside the inner loop (B), and the suspension ropes (R1, R2) pass through the apertures (7a, 7b) in the aforementioned floor (9), and also a method for modernizing an elevator.
