These modernizations were done with respect to the character of these elevators. This was well done

[@Dana_Danarosana]

I LOVE that they kept the cabs and floor indicators original in the residential cars. They ALL used to look like this including the Signature restaurant & bar (95/96) and observatory (94) express cars except they all had round Thyratron Tube touch buttons.

Thank Dave Vincy for taking such good care of Big John"s life blood! Fast ass cars, nice red Vans!

[@Brianvators]

I would say that this is a tasteful mod.

[@Meliodas1999]

Interesting to see an analog indicator with that amount of floors.

[@TheElevatorandAirplaneFinder]

Wow they kept the old floor indicator

[@elevatorgaming6712]

I would have gotten off at the 92nd floor to get a view.

[@WDLawless]

If I remember correctly, 93 is a mechanical floor.

[@ProspectElevators]

Installed 4-20-69

[@GabeVeasey]

Yeah, rubbing your feet against the carpet causes those annoying electrical shocks.

[@NeilPrasad_1905]

I wish it talks with the famous OTIS voice and not CE. That would have been so cool to hear it saying for 90 floors. The highest we've heard so far is the 85th floor.

[@marcusmaupins7553]

I know there's a certain secret special way to get up there on the high-rise residential floors. Past security.

[@KutWrite]

Why keep pressing a button that's already lighted?

[@wiebevanderveer7520]

What is the travel distance of this elevators?

[@greenshell389]
