This is in the pavilion (former dpt store) which is part of the court. The Court opened in 1981. This used to be Abraham and Straus (A&S), and closed in 1995, Reopened as Strawbridge's and Clothier 1997, closed late '99/early '00. Converted to the Pavilion, opened 2001, which is when this elevator was modernized by Schindler. It HAD GAL Jet Plus fixtures, and was an esco labeled "OTIS". The passenger elevator (now Schindler MT) had Otis Lexan Buttons. That is why this area of the mall is 3floors
I knew I'd get stuck in this piece of **** A&S installed in 1981, and SIMON modded in 2001. I just didn't know how the elevator would stop on me... I've been stuck in the Lord & Taylor Elevator at Fashion Center on more than 1 occasion
@Padel131 I believe you are referring to the old Wanamaker's/Hecht's/Strawbridge's/Macy*s Plaza. That building closed in July 2007, and is still vacant. It has NOT been torn down and it probably never will be as there is no need for a new JCPenney b/c even though the actual building JCPenney is in opened in 1965, JCPenney has only occupied it since 1992. It was Gimbel's until the mid 80's, and stern's until 1992. JCP had a store in the plaza b4 1992, that opened in '63, and was torn down in '92.
@Padel131 I said A & S, (Abraham and Straus), which is the department store that used to be located in this building from 1981-1987, and sold the building to Strawbridge's, which occupied the building from 1989-1999, and the building was sold to SIMON Property Group in 1999 and was converted to mall space and reopened in time for Fall 2001...
@lormarina I already said in comments on this video several times already that I was not angry at him, I was not yelling at him, nor was I anything of that nature. I am very close friends with him and have known him for several years now, and again I was not talking to him in any manner that was unjust at that time.
@Spaceshotx7 when you take it to 2, the magnet sometimes thinks that it is already there and its not, but the door doesn't open yet because it knows that its not there yet
true, but Jon, keep in mind, this space opened in 1981 as A&S!!!, and closed in 1995, converted to Strawbridge's 1997, closed 1999 (moved to Plaza, former Hecht's). Pavilion opened in former A&S 2001. It used to have GAL Jet Plus when it was A&S...
@travelplus1 Yes I do and my feelings would are not hurt by somebody asking me something like that :) You can't imagine what people say to me sometimes :O Anyway thank you I am glad you like my videos :)
the only thing that pissed me off is when Andrew kept telling me to jiggle the gate when I told him I did. That's why I started screaming "Andrew, I DID!"
@bradenpickett no problem you didn't offend me i just don't want any false rumors to be started by some people that would start rumors and then try to tell Andrew that I have a problem with him and put words in my mouth and yes this has happened before :O
@lormarina oh lol well I was frustrated with him, you're correct. The reason was he kept rubbing in my face how this lift "worked just fine and dandy" for him lol :P and obviously it didn't for me :D
@lormarina FOR THE LAST TIME, I HAVE GOTTEN A MILLION COMMENTS ABOUT THAT. I SAID A AND S AS IN ABRAHAM AND STRAUS. THIS IS THE LAST TIME I AM CLEARING THIS UP IN A COMMENT BEFORE I LOCK COMMENTING ON THIS VIDEO COMPLETELY
@elevator1tom oh rly? message me the town tht u live in i also live not far from there, and i actually lived in that township for the first 5 yrs of my life

I have the biggest fear of elevators
@cannycart The doors unlocked themselves when the elevator stopped. Freight elevators DO NOT have drop keys
@Padel131 this is in the pavilion. It has been mall space since 2001...
@gluse yeah... Is this the first time you saw this video??
Omg thats the scariest elevator i have ever seen.....
@Padel131 Is what still there??
Was that Andrew on the phone saying "please allow the doors to close" after the controller said it?
Kravco|SIMON. I believe SIMON owns the whole Pavilion since it was an Abraham and Straus store, and they made it mall space in 2001
In a zombie apocalypse i would try and hide there
Why would you get on that??!!! It looks terrifying
"Oh, this is pathetic" haha, great line!

JAF-Delgado Philly was a continuation of Deleware Valley Elevator Corp. after they went out of business...
@Elevator3322 I do not call an elevator the brand that refurbished it if they only replaced the buttons

We got something like this at my job...except we have to open the big metal doors manually.
@Spaceshotx7 when you take it to 2, the magnet sometimes thinks that it is already there and its not, but the door doesn't open yet because it knows that its not there yet
I have ridden on many elevator manufactured by y'all
it had GAL JetPlus when it was Strawbridge's too
true, but Jon, keep in mind, this space opened in 1981 as A&S!!!, and closed in 1995, converted to Strawbridge's 1997, closed 1999 (moved to Plaza, former Hecht's). Pavilion opened in former A&S 2001. It used to have GAL Jet Plus when it was A&S...

who was that who answered the second call on the elevator phone was that mall security
@TheJakeman789 People would think someone is using it because it rings for like 10 seconds before it closes.
were you talking to dieselducy?
yeah right...
I wonder if its a schindler becuase, the door close button doesnt work
@bradenpickett no problem you didn't offend me i just don't want any false rumors to be started by some people that would start rumors and then try to tell Andrew that I have a problem with him and put words in my mouth and yes this has happened before :O
How do they open the doors? Drop Key?
@Windows446 "PLEASE ALLOW THE DOORS TO CLOSE"
You were surprisingly calm.
Wait you selected 2 as the floor, how did it stop below level 2 unless it was intentional?
@Elevator3322 it's a Westinghouse
@someguy120100 yes
I could hear the orange strobe clicking as it charged up.
@lormarina oh lol well I was frustrated with him, you're correct. The reason was he kept rubbing in my face how this lift "worked just fine and dandy" for him lol :P and obviously it didn't for me :D
What is a relay?
I got stuck in a elevator with my best friend lucky we got out
I can hear the orange strobe light clickig as it charged.
@gluse ok =D
No I've seen it a couple of times
LMFAO, Andrew, I Don't Need This
what dos it say plaes aruond the to close?
@88888kitty1 brand confusion... geez
@firealarm211 oh sry about that I read the comment too fast. I agree with you :)
What a lovely elevator.
@MG47126 actually it is westinghouse modernized by schindler with epco fixtures
@noGAMEjumping I love this mall too but just because it's a nice mall doesn't mean it has nice elevators as you can see here lol
How did they get you out?
Did you get thrown out by mall security
That elevator can be classified as a death trap.
@Padel131 but now the Wanamaker's/Hecht's/Strawbridge's/Macy*s Plaza will be torn down
@dea41396returns you said it was monernized by schindler when the pavilion moved in
Y did you go to 1 floor 2floor 3floor2floorthen1floor you try to make it stop
@elevatorman17 No
@lormarina FOR THE LAST TIME, I HAVE GOTTEN A MILLION COMMENTS ABOUT THAT. I SAID A AND S AS IN ABRAHAM AND STRAUS. THIS IS THE LAST TIME I AM CLEARING THIS UP IN A COMMENT BEFORE I LOCK COMMENTING ON THIS VIDEO COMPLETELY
@therealmaddie Abraham and Straus and get your mind out of the gutter
@bradenpickett I don't have ANYTHING against andrew he and I are very close friends
@TheJakeman789 that would not be a good idea, after all, the employees would just think that the doors are closing
Man. I wish i had Dieselducy's number!
@dieselducy ikr lol im going to try and ride all the montys in both the plaza and the court today
Stop getting so mad at Andrew! And keep filming!
@crapper1 you should ride this one to 2nd floor if you want to get stuck
I did Andrew! I DID! lololol, what was he telling you to do?
Well thats Schindler for ya
@elevator1tom oh rly? message me the town tht u live in i also live not far from there, and i actually lived in that township for the first 5 yrs of my life
That elevator is a schindler becuase schindlers always get stuck
i love this mall
sorry about all the copies
2017 anyone
did u no its a schindler
this elevator is fail. luckily, it was modernized by Schindler and not TK. Those idiots just polish up old Dovers and call it done. It's still just basic Dover crap underneath.
Oh hush up you KONE queen.
I have not been stuck in a elevator yet
@firealarm211 I hate to tell ya but I'm older than you... I am 16 :P
i would have rang the alarm
Elevator nerds...
