- These are the AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL, FAST AND FAMOUS Otis Elevonic 401 Traction Elevators at 2 Eaton Harbor Centre in Hampton, Virginia. During my trip to the Outer Banks, I went over and stopped here, and not just because I have 600 Subscribers now, cause of how AWESOME you guys are, I also wanted to upload this as it's now been 24 years since elevator photography began, when Dieselducy filmed his first video at the Hilton in Atlanta back in 1993!!!! And since Dieselducy's take of these elevators from 2011 is his most viewed video, I figured, it would be a great time to upload this!!!! Anyways, these elevators are Very Nice, Mirrored, Chrome Paneled, Otis Elevonic 401 Elevators with Older Series 1 fixtures from 1987, and this building has a nice atrium and beautiful 1980's architecture. The elevators are very fast, and run like the day they were put in, and are in MINT CONDITION!!!!! These elevators have a very nice Grand View, are very smooth, and also have NICE CLASSIC LEVELING!!!! Also, as you guys know, Andrew went here again in December 2016, and you probably noticed it appeared that these elevators were getting modded, but I went here in May of 2017, and I'm happy to say, NOTHING has CHANGED!!!! It looks like these will be staying original, let's hope that doesn't change!!!! The far right elevator was modded with Series M2 Fixtures and was Out of Service, but that's fine cause the Elevonic 401's are better Anyways!!!!! They are a Classic, installed in the 1980's, Computer Based/Microprocessor Controlled Elevators were VERY AHEAD Of their time!!!!! I did also ride the service elevator in this video as well, along with the glass ones!!!! Anyways, with that being said, enjoy some FAMOUS AND AWESOME Otis Elevonic 401 Glass Elevators from the 1980's!!!!
Installed: 1987 (Otis Series 1 Elevonic 401) (Seen in video)
Modernized: 2016 (Far right elevator only, Otis Series M2) (No ride on video)
Good job Andrew for finding this elevator!
I wish those elevators can have a grandma voice
wow! 600 congratulations
Congrats on 600 subs. Could've mentioned I was able to film the modded one.
Sorry about that. And its too bad it was broken, but old ones are better anyways!! But thank you so much!!!!
Congrats on having 600 subscribers Julien!
Also it's neat the floor number is blue in the video, and did you notice that the messages for fire service where I lit up on the elevator?
Jordan Lowe ElevaTours Canada Thanks!!!! And I'm not sure if they were lit up, or if it was the light and reflection in the background. The indicator was green in person
Floridian Elevators damn omg your so lucky! the "classic leveling" is intelligent leveling. Intelligent leveling is what makes me love Otis elevonic 401s the most. I feel like gen2 is a modern day version of the elevomic 401 because its also intelligent leveling. anyways congrats reaching six hundred subs. Don't expect a Series 1 video on my TH-cam channel for another 10 months or until I visit Charlotte because they have a HELL load of Otis Series 1's
Specialty Elevators & UEE's by Technicalboy3000 I wouldn't say that cause Gen2's can only go up 28 floors. Elevonic 401's could go up over 100+ floors and also travel much faster than Gen2. Elevonic R or maybe Skyrise is probably the closest equivalent to Elevonic 401 now.
Specialty Elevators & UEE's by Technicalboy3000 I'll probably get more Series 1's when I go up to Canada soon. LOL Toronto and Montreal both have quite a few Elevonic 401 systems with Series 1 fixtures. Also, 100 Yonge St in Toronto has VERY EARLY Otis Series 2 Elevators, 1989 Otis Elevonic 411s (BigElevatorDude707 mistakenly labeled them as being Elevonic 401s)
Congratulations for getting 600 Subs.
ElevatorsinMassachusetts Thank you so much!!!
Nice job Julien
I’ve been down to the Hampton Roads area lots of times! I really hope they aren’t modernized! Next time I’m in the Hampton area, I hope to film these if they’re still original.
Beautiful elevators!
I think they modded just the one elevator because it probably wasn't working normally.
Chicagoland Elevators Yeah, that quite possibly be the case
No it isn’t. The elevator that he rode first just got modded, too.
@@STUAA2024 Yeah, I just saw Jason's video...

@@FloridianElevators skivator and john elevator fan made it to 500 subscribers a few days ago sometime
10:08 - "This elevator is very beat up" It's a service elevator so of course it will get beat up. I wonder if the service elevator is getting modded.
DieselDucy Filmed here
Congrats Julien
ElevatorNut13 Thanks!!!
@@FloridianElevators his channel name is not elevatornut13 it's b and b disney adventures
It beeps when you press the button and it beeps when it goes past each floor
it sure does gage thanks for subscribing to me
Are the other elevators still original?
OPM1961 All elevators were original except the one on the far right
They could have been modernized since then.
This was taken in May 2017 and Andrew was here in December 2016 and nothing had changed, but yeah, they could all be modernized by now, I just don't know. I hope not!
What is above floor 10
CONGRATS!!

ivan reid Really? I knew it was like this in 2016, but it has been the same since 2014!?!?!?! WOW

Thanks And That's awesome you got 600 subs you rock!!! 😍😀🤙🏻👍🏻
There is actually 1 that got modernised the very right 1
Your mic was glitching out
Yeah, I can see that. My mic on my PC sucks lol. Now I record my voice on my phone nowadays
5:00 The newly upgraded elevator seems to be out of service
Massachusetts Elevators and MBTA/Amtrak Railfanner technology is made to fail these days. back in the 80s technology was made to work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So true Techyboy. And yes the modded elevator was out of service!!!
Floridian Elevators The only reason I like Otis now is because the gen2s are time efficient, not boring & the skyrise / elevonic 411 accelerate like a schindler miconic 10
11 Floor Is As High You Can Go.

I love your channel and elevators !

These need a grandpa voice
agreed do you like regular series 1 and newer series 1
@@elevatorkid4814 yes
@@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams ok that is good
The four buttons were burn out they need new lights on them. (11 12 and 14th
Niki Stetkiewicz Those floors require key card access.
Floridian Elevators double tree hotels are pains in the neck because they always require you to get key cards to ride their elevators.
Specialty Elevators & UEE's by Technicalboy3000 They often do, but not exactly all the time though
***** DAMN! Always the low rise hotels that don't have the cards.
Clinton Township Lifts by MagicalLift256 the doubletree hotel in downtown el paso doesnt require you to have keycard
maybe they started modding these and they gave up
J Bush LOL. Maybe they did
@@FloridianElevators they did no ride on this video and it's series M2 VR
Some of them have the annoying door operator
@Gage Williams yes it does
