There are 2 differences I know of between older and newer Innovation Universal. 1 (possibly the older difference): In likely the mid-late 1990s they redesigned the brailles. 2: I think older Universal buttons are non-clicky and newer Universal buttons are clicky.
Correct, that's what has happened, I just haven't updated my title or description lol. But yes, the old Rental Car Garage was torn down last year, and this hotel just got new signage, suggesting it won't be going anywhere. One of my friend's dads works for the FDOT, and he told me it would be too expensive and challenging to demolish, so instead they're keeping the hotel
They WERE going to demolish it to expand the main terminal, but after thinking about it there's a much more cost effective way: Keeping the Marriott and control tower and demolishing the red side garage. The cost to demolish the Marriott and the control tower is over $50,000,000. The cost to demolish the red side garage is about $5,000,000
THIS IS NOT BEING DEMOLISHED!!! The cost to demolish the hotel would be 55 MILLION. Here's proof: www.tampaairport.com/hcaa-board-approves-phase-2-budget-amendment
Green And Orange Line Productions And you were the one who told me this place was being demolished in the first place!!! And it said so on the news!!! WOW
Joseph C's dad works with the Department of Transportation, and he knows a lot about the airport refurbishment. He told us that the Marriott wasn't being demolished.
Green And Orange Line Productions That is amazing. And I see the plans to demolish the old traffic control tower are scrapped too apparently. But now they are demolishing the redside garage.
A MARRIOTT HOTEL!? SERIOUSLY!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! MARRIOTTS MY FAVORITE BRAND!!!!!!!! GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Why couldn't they just renovate the hotel like every other old building is?
Stupid florida blowing up really nice old buildings & putting up super s^^^ modern buildings which look so generic! THEY BETTER PUT IN A NEW MARRIOTT WITH NICE GEN2'S, SCHINDLER MRL & THYSSENKRUPP SYNERGY but hopefully if it's a kone then 3rd party hydraulic
Specialty Elevators & UEE's by Technicalboy3000 They are building 2 new hotels by where the new terminal/rental car facility is being built. 1 of them will be a Marriott Autograph Collection hotel. Once they demolish this Marriott, they are going to build on and expand the existing terminal
Texas elevators garage door opener It's NOT A KONE. It was installed when KONE was buying Montgomery. Yes the elevators are nothing special, but the hotel is nice and has cool 1970s architecture!!!!

There’s a hotel on st Pete beach that has a revolving restaurant that’s still open
I’m guessing that’s the only two Marriott hotels that have the View restaurant. The Marriott at TPA Airport and Marriott Marquis Times Square
Interesting they have an Innovation Security CK Button!!
Some Montgomery Kone elevators has a Otis and Dover floor indicator
It sucks how they are demolishing it.
They're NOT demolishing it. The cost is way too high: 55 MILLION.
It’s because you have to enter a keycard to access floors 2-6
Based on what I can tell instead a parking garage will be demolished and this place is staying

Should have kept the G&P buttons.
I do beg to differ with this, because as I was going through the Tampa Airport elevators, these elevators are still intact in 2024.
They canceled the demolition of this hotel, and they're currently modernizing the elevators in the hotel.
what is the music
False alarm! I literally stayed there last year!
When this place is being demolished, are you going to ask for any parts to this elevator?
Nicholas Smith Maybe, but it's nothing special. As of now the demolition is being postponed because of financial problems.
Why are they demolishing this?

The renovation is going to be $1 billion total, I'm shocked they don't have the money to tear it down

maybe no one stays there because it is to much cash
