Historic OTIS Freight Elevator in a warehouse in Detroit with EPIC MOTOR

(May 2024) This was quite the find. There are a bunch of elevators at this building but most of them are broken. This one has an amazing motor. This is a 3rd person point of view!

“This is Motor City, folks!”

[@user-kp6xf4gf7t]

Very neat! Not super refined, but gets the job done reliably every time!

[@DieselDucy]

It is excellent

[@NWIndianaElevators]

Unique to see an automatic door on the outside!

[@DieselDucy]

It was quite interesting!

[@VintageCollections]

Yay some Michigan content! This place is super cool.

[@DieselDucy]

It really is!

[@Fantech0104]

That is interesting to see an automatic outer door with a manual inner door. I wonder what led to that configuration?

[@DieselDucy]

Not sure but it sure as heck was interesting 😃

[@VerticalTransit]

I love how the strap on the gate is basically the same length as the gate

[@alpaljl]

That inner gate is hilarious.

[@DieselDucy]

I know right?

Yay! I was waiting to see the full video. This thing is so cool. Glad you guys got to ride it

[@DieselDucy]

Us too! It was amazing

[@evana6425]

That’s what I call a great freight elevator. This elevator is one of the most perfect setup and the buttons are amazing as we all know how much we love love this. This is a pretty decent amazing elevator

[@evana6425]

I hope we find more historical freight elevators. I’m a lover for elevators especially historical elevators

[@DieselDucy]

Couldn't agree more!

[@TheTheo58]

Pretty cool vintage freight elevator in great condition, interesting inner and outer doors. From what I could see it has a very large counterweight

[@DieselDucy]

It was big

[@CarmeloPetago-jk1lv]

Amazing Elevator!

[@DieselDucy]

It was nice

[@hotelfan9936]

that elevator is very vintage and big! 😃👍

[@trinamiller100]

That is so historic for the Otis Fright Elevator at the warehouse.

[@DieselDucy]

It was awesome

[@BuildingToursForLife1660-4]

Amazing and Epic elevator! Epic motor!

[@DieselDucy]

Indeed it is!

[@elevatorfromthestatesofmic782]

Did you go to the northland towers? Those things are amazing!

[@DieselDucy]

Yes. The building was pretty run down. Between both buildings only TWO elevators running

[@elevatorfromthestatesofmic782]

@@DieselDucy yeah unfortunately well they are my favorite elevators there not all in good condition and not in the best area…. But they are still epic!

[@elevatorfromthestatesofmic782]

@@DieselDucy Even though this was a quick trip there, there is also only 1 building behind the 2 with 1968 Westinghouse selctomatics did you get those? But still this freight elevator is absolutely amazing all thanks to vintage collections for discovering this! :)

[@wasteoff9840]

Too good of a motor

[@DieselDucy]
