It's sad that the Longs are now gone, but these elevator modernization projects are really cool. And I like the way this video is a tour for this whole garage.
It looks like they made a lot of improvements to the garages! That key system is so smart! Looks like a very secure place to park now, and isn’t as sketchy.
I don't know why it says OS though, is it acting like a computer right now? Probably after that video was flimed, they fixed the elevator and now it works even though you only got one of them.
I miss the old, but both mods look nice. I tend to like the Advance mod a bit more than the Schindler mod for some reason (they both had a few issues). But I found it odd that the Schindlers displayed "S" and "5" the same. I've seen many Schindlers with the "S" with slanty lines. Interestingly enough, the distinguished British woman who vocally annunciates the floor numbers knows the difference even though the displays don't.
@@stlelevators Ah yes. I remember that now. But do you think these have separate logic for the floor indicator and the vocal annunciation for the distinction to work on one and not the other since Schindler voice can only say letters and numbers? i.e. a Schindler snobby British woman will say "floor L" while the Otis sexy lady voice can say "LAAAHHHHBIE". Otherwise I'd think the Schindler would say "Floor 5" for both floors...

Thanks. The longs will be missed but at least the buttons are being preserved!

Yeah though I think they are changing the access control yet again.
Pretty nice tour! Awesome mod
i want to film an elevator tour like that.
Thanks!
4:30 This makes sense cause these were the glitchy ones.
Ooh nice some Schindler Txpresses!
Yep
Isn’t that 6400?
Love It
Those elevators look like DC
New ones are nice but I miss the old one character so much 😭
Same here.
The modded elevators are much better than the old nasty ones.
They aren’t in as great of shape now. It has been a few years since the mod.
The left elevator on the 6th and Pine part of the Kiener West Garage is in independent service I believe, if the indicator says OS
I actually checked that, and Independent was turned off in the car.
Well I don't know it could be doing, or it is probably in fire service.
Very weird that the elevator was not functioning at the moment.
@@STUAA2024 I wasn't about to go screwing around with it because there were cameras in the lobby and I didn't want to mess anything up.
I believe it would say IS if it was in Independent Service. (If it was in fire service, it would say FS)
I don't know why it says OS though, is it acting like a computer right now?

One of the panels is in the museum
Yep! I'm glad I was able to get everything from this. In addition to the car panel, I also have one of the calls and an external PI on display.
I heard about something that the former Macy’s garage is abandoned and the elevators are decommissioned.
Yep.
Justin called this the wiener garage earlier this week XD
lol I've called it that for years.
How *LONG* did this mod take?
A few months
weird how 8 just got locked off in the schindlers with no obvious reason why, i wonder why they did that
Yeah it's weird.. It's almost like they closed off the roof but only from that elevator. You can still walk up the stairs.
@@stlelevators anything up there that would suggest why its locked or have you not had a sneaky little look up there to see whats going on?

What's interesting is the old long elevators for "S" it showed a 5 and for 5 it showed the S with the slanty lines.

The chime on the other Schindler elevator works.
odd why mitsy used innovation bruiser and not mce buttons
MCE is a controller not a button type.
When in the 60s were these garages built?
1962 (from what I could find)
@@stlelevators They were actually built at different times, the east garage was built in 1964 and the west garage was built in 1966
@@jonathancreveling5658 That makes sense since they would probably do one at a time.
I wonder why they went with Schindler for one garage, then used a cheap off brand in the other garage.
The advanced is better than the Schindler. They switched because Schindler wasn’t doing a good job.
@@stlelevators Oh wow, That's surprising.
@@stlelevatorsthat’s really surprising. Most of the Schindlers I come across run great
I wonder why so many elevators were modded in the 90s.
Not sure, may be a coincidence.
ADA compliance
The elevators are modernized again in 2012.
Still GAL doors!!
Yep
Well, these *Long* elevators are going to be missed
Yeah :(
Good bye longs
Yeah they will be missed :(
@@stlelevators yeah I agree :(
