Lobby Westinghouse Hydraulic Elevators at the Chicago Hilton (Former Guest Quarters Hotel)

(May 2022) This hotel holds a special place in my heart as we used to stay here every Thanksgiving when i was a teenager. I remember riding these when I was just 13 years old. They haven't changed a bit except for the phantom voice which was added.

[@evana6425]

The only thing I don’t like is hearing the speaker

Epic Motor! Interesting how it’s has the voice on a hydro.

The voice is new.

[@LDTV22OfficialChannel]

It sounds like the one used on ThyssenKrupps.

[@DieselDucy]

This is Chicago.

[@enricotweedy-m5z]

tell me what state locate

[@evana6425]

Chicago is located in Illinois

[@kellangainey]

Hey And hey Andrew. Just was curious. Do you know what causes elevator motors if they’re older if the pitch is lower or if it’s higher pitched 1:15

[@DieselDucy]

Not sure. Maybe the size of the motor?

[@iloudradiorecords4547]

I see that there’s a floor underneath the lobby. I wonder why the elevator doesn’t go down further?

[@DieselDucy]

Not sure

[@thethirdrail8397]

I often wonder why no one ever shows the pit of the elevator(s). esp. Hydraulic... sometimes that can be a bit interesting too!

[@DieselDucy]

Good point, I should start doing that.

[@kellangainey]

Do you like Schindler MTs Andrew. Also. Have you ever been to Michigan?

[@DieselDucy]

Yes and yes

[@Elevatorelectricgate]

So the elevators are still original?

[@evana6425]

Thank goodness they are

[@DieselDucy]

yep! From 1989 i believe.

[@joekelley1734]

Which Hilton in Chicago is this?

[@DieselDucy]

magnificent Mile

[@BrandondHasty]
