- Filmed on August 11, 2017: I was in Canada last month for a vacation and I was really looking for on seeing this piece of beauty up in the penthouse at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Niagara Falls, ON. But something has gone wrong when I got up there. IT GOT MODERNIZED!đđđđđ I did not even discover this being modded already!!! According to the hotel employee who just exited the penthouse elevator, this was modernized this past May.
Main Elevators: Installed in 1929, modernized in the 50's or 60's and again in 2009.
Penthouse Elevator: Installed in 1948, modernized in 2017.

WHY?? Why would you modernize an awesome, old OTIS elevator with this piece of garbage that is very common in Canada?? *sigh*
NW Indiana Elevators i agree
The old elevators were better than the modded ones! I remember those when I first rode those elevators... It was great! But now it's modernized?! You're not happy about that... So do I.
Me too!
Noooooooooooooooooooooo why. Yuck. Why do they modernize a beautiful elevator
I think that the Crowne Plaza knew that you were coming and said, Jim sure is going to be sad when we mod this elevator to prank him! Then Jim would be like NOOOOOOOO!!đđ
looks like a Crappy Dewhurst or Schindler mod... they prob thought we modernize the elevator and it'll be more reliable..
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! It been Modernisations!
"What you looking for?"
At first when I saw the interior, I almost thought it was a KONE KSS 140 mod even though thatâs not probable. This is a dewhurst mod apparently.
the people who modernized this elevator takes the old looking elevator as garbage..
old is gold!!
nooo! the penthouse elevator was modded last year!
E-P-I-C FAIL!!
Absolute murdernization, hope they mod these again but this time with decent otis stuff and not generic trash.
Maybe, but I think I hardly doubt it though.
@@JimLiElevators they are definitely not getting moded soon, but if they ever mod it again, id hope itâs not generic.
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! đđđđ
1:35 oh no not kone
Texas Elevators Itâs Delta
ElevatorsinUSA I donât think Otis has anything to do with this mod.
THE PENTHOUSE ELEVATOR GOT MODDED
Gross! I bet that the motor and logic has been replaced...
I really hate it when generic companies are like "We are just gonna replace these parts so we can make some money!"
I agree with you, Jordan.
Or just possibly a cheap slap-on mod.
Vancity Elevators Sometimes by the way it's better,the motor as long they work,some can not work anymore after long time!!!!!
It still destroyed a classic.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Why did the elevator get modernized before I even watched your other video in 2012 đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°đ°
Was M2 even around in 2009? I thought it was created in 2014-2015.
OPM1961 Yes. They were introduced in 2008
This is one of the WORST mods I have ever seen out of any elevator in CZcams! This is probably my least favorite mod of all time! RUINED
The Death of an Epic Elevator!
Sad.
The reason they modded this beauty Beacuse some people are complaining about the design and the inside of the cab.
Hotels just loves to âpunishââ vintage elevators by replacing them with crap!
Easily one of the worst mods of the year, along with the Chateau Frontenac and the Investment Building!!!!!!!! YUCK!!!!!!!!
Any link to premod video?
You can just search up "Crowne Plaza Niagara Falls penthouse elevator", and it will pop up.
What did it molded by?
Not too sure.
Now seeing a video of the elevator in modded condition and hearing the voice, I say ThyssenKrapp
Jennifer Wells this was actually probably modded by a small Canadian elevator company named Delta. Delta usually has curves on their COP Panels and Call Panels and use that chime. Definitely a Delta mod. Delta modernizes A LOT of elevators is Toronto and a lot of Southern Ontario. Easily the most common mods up here are done by them.
@@FloridianElevators In a video I saw it had an innovation chime so you may be right
While modernizations are upsetting to see, unfortunately it is usually done for a reason. Either the elevator breaks down too much, the parts for it are either too expensive or hard to find, or they just want to change it to make the experience in the building better.
Now donât get me wrong, I donât like mods either. Thinking about the M2 slap on mod on the Hobby airport elevators makes me sick to my stomach. But despite all of these modernizations in the 2010s and 2020s, there could always be a vintage elevator out there somewhere. While I was in San Antonio last month, I knew the city was known for modding all of their elevators, and it was quite a surprise when I found a vintage Otis with GAL fixtures that I am pretty sure the building never laid a finger on. It had an very old cab that has never been redone and it ran so smoothly for its age without being a bit redone. All the buttons lit up, it had a nice quick smooth door operator and a sweet sounding motor. Only problem with it was that some of its bulbs on the floor indicator were burnt out but if they replace it, it would be in brand new condition.
I forgot to mention I wouldâve liked the mods on the hou elevators if they wouldâve added the Gen2 voice. I grew up with that voice at every hotel I stayed at back then lol
Iâve been to this place before
What a shame!
1:26 what you came for
"What you looking for?"
They have to be kidding me! Why would they modernize such a nice original elevator with that generic garbage?! It was better when it was original! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! đą
Noooo. Why??? Agreed but still, why????????
This mod makes me flip out.
That is ridiculous
I was looking forward
Is it possible to access 10 on the passenger elevators to get to the penthouse elevator, or is the 9th floor the only way to get to the penthouse elevator?
Most likely the 9th floor.
Well, unfortunately all good things come to an end.
I wish I couldâve seen it before they modernized this.
@@JimLiElevators yeah, that would be nice
Yuck!!
NEXT TIME TRY TO GO UP THERE IF THE OFFER
What happend these elevator? Ooh.. i know something wrong elevator has 2 door only serlously!!
Wait. You knew something wrong was going to happen before I went in there? How did you know that this thing was going to be modernized when I heard they have no plans to?
No you didn't went this elevator you did went a elevator mobbed
Crowne Plaza in Niagara Falls? more like âDrowned Plaza in Niagara FAILS!â I HATE THIS MOD!! đđĄđ
Epic fail!!!
IS 10 LOCKED?
No it is not.
I saw 11 Floor
Jim I live in Canada
Epic fail! IT GOT MODERNIZED đź
Did anyone film the penthouse elevator before the modernization?
OPM1961 Otiselevator9439, Ontarioâs Elevators and Big Elevator Dude707.
Who watching this in 2018
YUCK!!! WHY DEWORST!!
MA Elevators Even an Otis Series M2 mod would've been MUCH better!
OR EWORST!!
Oregon Elevator Fan Ewworst is this.
Garden State Elevators How about NO MOD!!!!!
Or some upgrades!!
NOOOOO!! What the heck!
This is by far the worst elevator mod I've ever seen! If they wanted to change out the buttons, they should've at least renovated the cab too because the combination of a generic modern panel with a retro cab looks like absolute garbage.
Crap!
WHY!!, Why on earth would you modernize an awsome old otis elevator with this piece of crappy garbage
i know this elevator should've not been modernized!!
Alas, the time I just spent watching this clickbait video will be forever lost.
Wait... Is it stuck? Or maybe Modded??? But, I want to see the old elevator version
No, itâs not stuck. I wanted to see the old version as well, but itâs already too late. This is indeed modernized, which means the old elevator is gone permanently.
Oh god... That is too bad. đ
DEWHURST IS ALSO GROUNDED GROUNDED WITH KONE!!!
Honestly, I don't like Go!Amimate. The grounded videos never stop and I can't stand it anymore.
Oregon Elevator Fan Sorry I understand you don't like goanimate. I was saying when the mod or the elevator is bad.
MBTA and Elevators Oh okay.
LOL IM DYING!!!
KONE has been grounded for 2 years after replacing the elevators at Roosevelt Field, and have now been grounded forever for life since replacing the Chateau Frontenac Elevators, and now Dewhurst is grounded with KONE in their bedroom......LOL
And the worst part is, they told Mattyice0812 that they wouldn't modernize this, BUT THEY DID!!!! #lies
I'm just so speechless when Mattyice0812 told me that right after I went into the Crowne Plaza. If he told me before I went in there that they have no plans modernizing the elevator, and I find out that it is gone already, this would've been much more worse!
Floridian Elevators It's not all the olds that can resist,it's better modernize than have something worse!!!!!
Nooooooooooođ
NOOOOOOOOO!đđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđđ€đđđđ
well at least the main ones are the talking otis
WHYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?
Looks like KSS 140.
Calvin Abad It's not. It's US 91 Crap on it
crown plaza is know as the killer hotelđ
This MURDERNIZATION just makes me sick to my stomach...
đ€źđ€źđ€ź Right?
EWWWWWW
WORSE MOD EVER!
YUCK I DONT LIKE MOD ELEVATORS I HATE IT
Awwww, come on.
What happened at the end?
You mean, like where I got questioned by an employee?
I just saw it in the description. Did he ask you to leave or anything?
No he didn't.
Jim is very disappointing about elevator gets moderate
YET ANOTHER BIG EXAMPLE HOW YOU DON'T MODERNIZE AN ELEVATOR!!!!
Oregon Elevator Fan Totally agreed!!!
What an atrocity! Easily the worst mod of the year right here! Thankfully, I got to film it last October. These elevators were installed in 1929, modded circa 1948 with the black buttons, then this abomination!
Junk mod. Nearly as bad as a lot of NYC elevators I've seen being in that area.
The main elevators are nice. But that penthouse elevator mod is probably the saddest excuse of any elevator mod that I've ever seen.
I go to the elevator at 3am do this at 3am
Are u here in buffalo?
No I'm not.
JimLiElevators oh ok
HUH? bummer :(
Ugh! Not a dewhurst! Come on!
How to ruin an elevator!
That's sad đ:( ):
It's been to late
Poohurst mod!
Ewwww I WANT TO GET RID OF GENERIC SYSTEMS
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!đđđ
Pathetic mod!
YUCK!!!M WHY DID THEY DO THIS BENO,S OWL LIKES DEWHURST I HATE IT!!!
Not a very high quailty mod on the penthouse elevator.
His name is QuarioQuario54321
This individual has been acting like a fool and making the community look bad for a couple of weeks now.
That thing is a pease of garbage
1:17
AGH! Modernisations!!
That was me in the elevator
Were you the one who I met by the penthouse elevator in this hotel?
Yes that was me
Wow!!!! :D I never knew you had a CZcams account!!!! :D Remember me? I was the one explaining to you about the elevators in this hotel.
And I was also explaining to you my opinions of elevator modernizations?
Armstrong Factor How did you find the video?
God, this mod is terrible. I prefer the original 1940s Otis. So, my rating of this mod will be 0/10
Oh no it got modded
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!đđąđȘ
BLEUGH! DEWHURST! DISGUSTING MOD!
Destruction through murdernization!
Rip
I'm so disappointed about this mod! Someone did tell me they weren't planning on modernizing it but off course it happened anyway what the hell!!!
IKR!!?!? Plus, I am so surprised that you told me after I visited this place that they originally had no plans modernizing it. If you told me ahead of time that they were not going to be modernized before I go up there to check it out and that itâs already gone, I would be even more dead mad about it!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! đđ epic fail
YUCK! DEWHURST! F- MODERNIZATION!đđ
Frankie L. LOL I so agree. F- for this mod
No that is ugly generic mod đĄđ
THE MOD RUINED IT UGHHHH
Looks like a Delta or Fujitec mod! DISGUSTING!!!! Piece of crap cheap mod! This is just like the shuttle elevator at the Royal York Hotel Toronto. Man, Canada has DeWORST everywhere !! I like Dewhurst US91 EN(this fixture) But hate that mod!
I hate this mod so much as the ruined an epic elevator.
WHY?? Why would you modernize an awesome, old OTIS elevator with this piece of garbage that is very common in Canada?? sigh
