It used to be westinghouse not US

Freaky deeky

The right 1 had probably just started at the time as Dec. 2023 was right when the service car finished.

That’s definitely illegal.

I would be shocked if they use this as a staff elevator instead of using the freight. It doesn't shock me at this point. Its a single slide door left sided COP and it's 2500 lbs. Yeah try and convince me otherwise.

It looks like it runs fine, it's just a little scratched up.

This is amazing with the Otis combasses

I think this is actually late-1930s. This seems more of a newer style, actually not far off from Mercyhurst's Old Main, which is from 1938.

This store shut down recently

I like the new motor tbh

these compass elevators are so awesome. great video. my name is robert.

these compass elevators are awesome.

This is an extremely weird elevator

These look awesome!

You sure that 3rd car is a new install?

The elevator voices may be a bit to loud for an apartment building haha

“twenty FIRST floor”

Built in 1986 Modernised in 2019

What is Gannon university

A lot of high-rise elevator systems from the 90s are now getting mods. It's sad but reality.

Wow! Love these. 😊

How did you get in here? I wasn't able to get in when I tried

Such a disappointing mod... was this badly needed?

This freight elevator is a gem, still in great working condition and levels on the button. By the depth of the cab it's quite likely a 2:1 roped under-slugged compensating sheaves and on the counterweight with a geared traction machine, defector sheave on the counterweight ropes.

I believe I have been on this. Looks familiar.

I like how at the end, the doors are about 90% closed and it finally says “doors closing”. People who are blind are a pancake by then if the sensors are down lol.

If I ever come to Pittsburgh, I would like to ride these elevators

Well that was quick.

That is so beautiful

They removed the analog arms!

I've lived here 1 year longer than you have & I've ALSO only ridden them 1 time ever lol. In 2019.

These elevators are traction

Why not stop on every floor on this wasted video.

First elevator uses a version of a car horn while service elevator uses normal buzz

I think the name for those buttons is innovation decorator

Those are lovely 😍

I totally forgot we made a trip to canton 😂 at first I was like you went without me 😂

Sad this will be the only original old Westy left once Doherty's modded. And soon this will probably go :(.

Q

Any chance you could put Saks Fifth Avenue in the title?

Nice elevators indeed

What does Level A stand for?

It's amazing that this particular Sears has survived all of those closure waves, the 2018 bankruptcy, and even the pandemic. It wouldn't surprise me if this one ended up being the last full-line Sears store in the state of Florida to shut down. As for the elevator, it really has not really aged too well. Typical for Sears in general, but that depends on the store; any multilevel Sears store that's left now, that is. Anyhow, there are actually eleven Sears stores left in the continental United States as of August 2023. Of course, like a lot of us are aware, the store opened in October of 1988 along with the mall, and this is what the Sears and its elevator are like now, almost 35 years later.

I absolutely love this elevator!

They might end up demolishing the space and filling in the holes if they decide not to add anything new to its space

I would have put negative signs in front of the floors to indicator that they go downwards

Nice Otis 👍

There's an elevator at 0:01 too :)...or technically was.

Nice elevators 👍

Very nice fixtures 👍
