These beautiful elevators are really something to enjoy with
For some reason, this was in recommended and decided to give it a look then nostalgia hit me. I remembered I rode these elevators back in 8th grade (with 8th grade classes) back in 2002 when they had old buttons and lights on it. Such a good memory!
i love these elevators theres alot of lifts and they are glass u can see all the way up/down the shaft!
I rode these elevators back in July 2019 and they have newer fixtures and they were busy but they are nice Otis elevators.
Thats cool
This is a busy busy elevator
I love going to this mall and riding the elevators all the time!! When I'm there they are super busy and always stop at EVERY. SINGLE. FLOOR. It drives me nuts!!!
That view is great!
I was here a couple weeks ago (summer 17) and It was so crowded that we had to wait almost 10 minutes for an elevator!!!! I have ridden these a couple of times(I live in the metro area)
RACE DUDE57 YOU MUST VISIT THIS PLACE ALSO YOU MUST VISIT THE ELEVATORS AT THE GLEN STATION MARYLAND
Wow the best video ever I love those model and I love Otis elevator
Cool I caught a video of a Chicago elevator. Those elevators are phenomenal. I actually like the original set up but this set up is great too.
Yeah, the way they set this up is very nice
I filmed those elevators 3 days ago while I was there on 12-21-22
I was here last Tuesday, and I found out these elevators are getting modernized again. Also if you're ever in Chicago again, check out the elevator in the Apple Store along the river. Youll see why in my video of it.
I was here recently and saw that too! Do you know what equipment will be used?
I love those elevators too!!! COMPLETELY GLASS!!!
Hopefully the door timers won't take 30 seconds to close and also I hope the door close buttons will work.
@matte5552 I think it was Otis again. I could be wrong
Those fixtures are my 2nd favorite fixtures. My first is by KONE kss 220
This one has the original positioning system, notice the old chain-like cable attached to the elevator car
I have ride it before, it's great
I like the glass elevators at the water tower place mall in Chicago Illinois.
Awesome levelling
I rode these elevators a few days ago and they were in INDEPENDENT SERVICE (except the express elevator)
This caused so much confusion as other customers thought the elevators were stuck or broken since the call button would not call the elevators that go G-7 floors
These elevators are always very busy!
@@JimLiElevatorsIt would be nice if they weren't this busy all the time. It's in Downtown though
OMG INSTALLED RIGHT ON MY MOTHERS BIRTH!!!!!!!
Věry Fast nice elevator
Chicago has some nice malls.
Those sensors are common in where I live (in England) and some flash while opening. Great video as usual!
Elevators got modernized again they’re Otis M2 now
I rode these in 2007 or maybe it was 8 but I remember them being old but i didn't remember them being touch
I've finally rode those elevators before black Friday
most modern lifts in europe have those type of sensors
Used to be touch.
Yep, these were touch. Hanny originally filmed this several years ago.
DieselDucy, yes but (f*****g) modded :*(
Where beautiful when they were touch but got modernized and like the sensor so much
Elevator Fan by Star red head Me too and it gave me a headache
Just like at the Highland Hospital, their blue elevators used to be touch sensitive buttons. Modernized by otis series 2
As of 2018, they are getting modded AGAIN!!! With Series M2
I DON'T even believe it!!!! 10 years later, another mod. Really?
JimLiElevators Yup! Check out WI Sirens and Elevators video!
I already watched it.
👍very nice elevators could you find it again?
These elevators have since been modded again. Still pretty much the same, only the fixtures and controller equipment have been replaced.
Wow
I heard the express elevator play its song
It was a recording of harry caray singing take me out to the ballgame
They got moded again
I like your video
The door timers on those are ridiculous and the door close buttons do not work either which is even more annoying. These elevators are always AMAZING but BUSY
How fast are these elevators?
Probably 500-700 FPM.
Those got modernized again and they don't have that dover bell chime
What is a Express Elevator?
The express elevator takes you directly to the floor without any stops in between the lowest and highest floors.
That is a tall shopping center!

These LEDs inside the door frame are becoming more common.
PNW HAS FILMED HERE
Series M2 Mod! NICE!
What mall is that? Looks very nice to walk around
@Zatrix it is the Water Tower Place Mall in Chicago, IL.
I like the touch better but these are a rocket
Do you live in illinois?
No, I live in Texas.

Why the express elevator
It is used for fast efficiency whenever the other elevators are busy.
