I like how the newly modded elevators ring WELL before they arrive, meaning you can actually have reaction time, so your not rushing to get to the elevator
When I tried filming an elevator that was being processly modernized, I slightly got busted from the security members there. You filmed during a less busy day. When I filmed, it was busy so it was less convenient for me to film.
***** It was almost the end of the day when I went! lol! I just had some free time and this was the only opportunity I had to still see these elevators in their original form!
@@JOOT49He is right. There's only 4 elevators on each bank and 3 on 42-47. It's not that necessary. It would be hard with the way this atrium is set up. They don't need destination dispatch
All right, I'm okay with the modernization, but they have a few voice announcement bugs to work out. Hopefully that'll be taken care of before the year is out.
It's a Series 7 mod, not too bad actually. But I really don't see why they need to mod these, they're ADA-Compliant and run just fine. And I noticed some of these have classic leveling, I hope that doesn't go away with the mod
technicalboy 3000 I don't think it is OTIS fault it's probably the hotel's fault. The elevators ran just fine like any otis would since they are high quality
Superduper Julien & technicalboy 3000 What makes this mod sad is these elevators' history. These elevators meant a lot to our community, they represented the beginning of elevator photography. To us, they're a real piece of our history, but to the hotel management, they were an eyesore. The hotel's management is the reason why these are getting ruined.
I remember watching the original videos of these by MusicFreakcc, ever since then I have wanted to go here. Connor will always be the original Atlanta filmer to me. I never been here when it was original but they are not much different with the mod.
They now have hard floor! They took out the carpet after the mod too. The hotel feels nicer with the mod but I still wish I could have seen them before they were modernized
I’m going to be visiting Atlanta in late October this year. I would like to film these elevators while I’m there on October 24th. These elevators look interesting.
4:06 Eric Sturniolo: "And this one's probably gonna come as soon as I summon it." Elevator arrives. Eric Sturniolo: "Yep." Bell dings and doors open. Voice: "Going up."
+ems318 I hope they are still original. Seeing your newest mod completion video, the mod looks great and Im glad to see the got renovated as I stayed back in 2011 and it was in BAD need of renovation.
It's definitely a little sad seeing classic elevators like this get modernized, especially those with impressive technology for the time such as the Elevonic 401 system. However, I am interested to see what the future holds for these elevators, even if the mod does look a little run-of-the mill for current OTIS products. I like the video monitor with the modernized product, though!
The Parking Elevators are still original. On floors 1-17 and 18-30, I wonder what the 3rd elevator car was like before the mod because I didn't see any videos of it on both sets
Although you probably already got them, I think it would be awesome to get some parts from these elevators. I have yet to obtain my first elevator part but I may one day get lucky and get one.
What video editing software do you use? What is the name of the song you used at the beginning and end of the video? Also can you try to get back to this hotel in the next month or so?
***** I'd like it if you could do me, and other people in the community a favor and ask permission to ride the service elevators. I'm very curious to see what they look like now.
This place is in a dire need of a MAJOR renovation. Just look at the guest floors. Screams the 80s. I wish they put more effort in the modernization besides a slap on. They need destination dispatch but they aren't that busy. Overall they need to do what they did with the New York marquis
+Cherry City Elevators I think the architecture of the place is kind of cool! I makes me think of the future because of all the curves and lights and stuff. It all futuristic and makes me think of a spaceship. How come they don't even do that crap anymore. Instead the new building are all blocky and crap. I wish they still made buildings like this today. Matter of fact the stuff from 30 years ago is made to last unlike the crap today!
+Cherry City Elevators Destination dispatch would not be necessary here, as there are 4 banks of elevators serving 47 floors in total. witch means that alike calls, are already sorted down by banks of elevators the one they have in NY has two banks of elevators serving 49 floors, and had problems with elevator traffic prior to modernization
I realize what you mean by the architecture, but the outside is rather odd... It's often referred to as the pregnant building. And in Portland, they're constructing really cool buildings. I like them a lot. 70s and 80s was a sad time in architecture. Don't get me started lol.
technicalboy 3000 It was Marriott's decision. I went there four years ago, and I must say that while it was a very nice place to go ride some awesome elevators, it was in dire need of renovation. I'm glad to see that this is happening. However, I still would've gone with the Compass system.
You would have thought that this video would be more popular 9 years later, but no! Not even half a million viewers! People don't find this interesting for some reason. 😊
I think Otis Compass could have done a world difference here. Especially with the amount of banks of elevators here. At any bank, it can assign you to an elevator. Not to mention more modern despite the elevators were not that bad with wait time
Hey Eric! I love the modernized elevator better than the original elevator. I checked Andrew's first video. The new voice is better than the original voice.
If the elevator is just completed after modernization , it may get a few problems which show that it would not accept the call mostly if the call fixture is still original.
actually you can there's a door open button and you press that and walk out and with destanation dispatch and otis compass (plus)you press your floor number in and wait for a car you want and if you don't want that car than wait until the doors shut then put that number in again until you get the car you want
@@ericsturnioloThe speed on all of these are the same. I know the speed on all of these except 18-30. I think the 18-30 is 600 FPM. They are definitely not 700 FPM.
Series 7 used on brand new installs is awesome but Series 7 mods are not as great. I am upset about the Marriott marquis mod. The current models Otis makes are series 7, Compass, and believe it or not series 6 and series 4 are still in production but not as much as series 7 or Compass.
jim mcintyre You are correct. Any Destination Dispatch System would be epic but Compass would be more epic. That could be something they could do last.
People just don't want outdated stuff in their places, there will still be old elevators to enjoy, and recently installed ones that have that old touch. But I am still sad to see these go nonetheless
I like how the newly modded elevators ring WELL before they arrive, meaning you can actually have reaction time, so your not rushing to get to the elevator
