  • (July/November 2023) This is a before and after of the modernization of the elevators at the Wells Street Garage (Formally Isaacs Parking) in Milwaukee, WI. These elevators were originally installed by Dover/Northwestern in the 1970s and were original up until 2023 when they received a modernization by Otis. Enjoy a final ride on one of the original cars and then a ride on the brand new elevators. As sad as it is to see a set of epic vintage elevators get modernized, these were in much need of a mod as you can see by my before take.

    Hi, I’m the guy who modded those cars! Thank you for the compliments. This was one of my favorite jobs and i’m very happy with the final project.
    I’m glad to see that COP is in good hands! Can’t wait to see the restoration!

      Great work! Thanks for saving this panel for me I really appreciate it! It was worth the drive to Milwaukee to pick it up! Have you heard our little elevator museum in Roanoke, VA? We’ve got all kinds of unique items from all over the world. The link is museum.elevator.fan

    Otis did an excellent job on this mod, and yes, they were overdue for modernization!

      For sure. These were really cool elevators, and I'm glad I was able to see them both before the mod.

    They made a great choice going with Innovation fixtures. Those are some of my favorite.

      Hopefully they’ll hold up to public use.

    First time riding these was after SirenCon this summer. Had some friends over early December and decided to bring them downtown to see the Hyatt and these elevators. Was shocked to see them so different but definitely much needed!

    These elevators needed a mod but i still liked the original fixtures. Otis did a good on these.

    As a former MKE resident who rode these a lot, these really needed the mod they got. Although with the expansion of the convention center across the street, I already knew it was coming.
