    You know, that service elevator with the 2-speed doors might have been actually working. It might have been locked at a floor by maintenance personnel to move or work on something.

    I use to work at this hotel when it was called Adam's Mark. the hotel was still under renovation at the time but I loved eating my lunch on the helicopter pad of the central tower. I was told by my friend who still works there that it's impossible to get up there now.

    That's cool that you got to explore the top floor of this hotel. I didn't expect there to be escalators on the top floor. Although, it's sad to see the top floor in this condition.

    @force311999 According to the building history, this hotel was built as an office tower in 1959. It was converted to a hotel in 1998 by Adams Mark. The roof was an observation deck, not a ballroom. The office tower had a famous and exclusive restaurant on level 37. Architecturally, it's hard to devise why exactly the passenger elevators did not service 41. It may have been that the observation deck was an after-thought because 40 is clearly a MEP floor, which is usually at the top.

  • @kktotheboompa
    @kktotheboompa 12 лет назад

    When it opened in 1959 the Sheraton Hotel was part of the original buildings. Observation deck was located 41st floor. Adam's Mark hredeveloped all 3 towers of the complex into one large hotel in 1998. In 2007, it was sold and the new owners REflagged it as a Sheraton, returning to the shortest tower's orig name from fifty years before. I used to visit the observation deck whenever I went downtown as a kid - which was often, since that was before the days of malls.

    Strange service floor, surprised by the state of it when there are escalators going up to a public area.

    @force311999 It's not under construction. It's out of use. Chances are when Adams Mark was doing the hotel conversion in 1998, they would have had to install brand new elevators to service 41 in order to fulfill ADA requirements that had been passed in 1991. The original office tower observation deck with only the escalators would have been exempt past 1991 because it was an existing structure and thus would be grandfathered in. It's hard to imagine a world before ADA requirements.

    Compared to a supposed "high-profile" hotel in Latin America, this would be deemed the most impeccable of the impeccable. When you are met at the door with armed sentries (which might very well be the case in our nation if things continue down the path they're going), then we can talk about "dump(s)" and a deplorable experience.
    That said, I enjoyed the video. Wouldn't mind longer, extended cuts akin to this one in the future, Andrew.

  • @ElevatingBoston

    It looks like 40 is/was a MEP floor with a small corridor (now removed) that led to the escalators to bring you up to the ballroom on 41. It's too bad it's all defunct now. It was probably beautiful in its day.
    I also don't understand you calling the Sheraton a dump. They are equally in the ranks with the Marriott and Westin (also a Starwood brand) brand, having similar furnishings, amenities and room rates.
