I like elevators and going around filming them for an enjoyment of the hobby of photography.
Dover/TKE Hydraulic Tunnel Elevator at One Allen Center in Downtown Houston TX
Video Recorded: 11-15-24
This elevator serves the main lobby, street level and all the way to the underground tunnel system. I’ll be posting videos I took in the actual buildings in a bit but you could find this elevator easily in the tunnel but in the building itself a little bit more hidden.
Overall Rating: B+ Great
I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)

LUXURIOUS High-Speed Original Schindler Houghton Elevators at TC Energy Center- Houston TX
Переглядів 15621 день тому
Video Recorded: 11/15/24 These things are so epic and fancy that they are easily probably in my top 10 so far. The different variation of cab designs to classic leveling to the beautiful bells and the fact that these are fast too. Other banks have been modded a while back with Otis Compass Plus and the higher banks seem to live on strong as this place in my opinion the nicest building in Downto...
Power Outage and STUCK on Elevator at Bass Pro Shops- Houston TX

Video Recorded: 7/17/24 Edited: 11/13/24 Yeah I already have clips of this elevator on one of my other videos called " Let's Ride Some Cool Glass Elevators Around Houston". I know this video and how much I edited this is a little bit of overkill but I like that it's not just a carbon copy elevator video so I'll at least try on some videos. I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
Questionable Dover Impulse Hydraulic Elevator at Inn Town Suites in Houston TX
Переглядів 114Місяць тому
Video Recorded:6/28/24 Yeah although I do like the fixtures, this elevator could use an updated cab as the COP is falling apart and holes and sticky stuff on the wall. The guy I encountered seemed nice and the place seemed not that sketchy on the outside but is in a rather bad part of town.

Video Recorded: 7/3/24 I'm planning on making a playlist called "Kody Incognito Mode Saga" because of his outfit. I never seen the other green garage elevator on here but only the one by Macy's. Overall Rating: C Undermaintained I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
TKE Agile Elevators at Bank Of America Tower Garage- Downtown Houston TX
Переглядів 533Місяць тому
Video Recorded: 8/6/24 You can find these through the downtown Houston underground tunnel system and are in between Pennzoil Place and Understory (Which is located right under the Bank of America Tower). It was a stumble find and funny that I first thought these were Port. Overall Rating: B Awesome I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
Renovated Lobby Schindler 400A Traction Elevators- 4 Houston Center in Houston TX
Переглядів 12 тис.Місяць тому
Video Recorded: 8/6/24 This elevator lobby at 4 Houston Center now has a newly renovated lobby just like all of the other office buildings here in downtown now. This will likely be the only non high rising office facility that I'll be filming and this elevator most likely be an Otis Lexan. Overall Rating: B- I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
Epic Motor Glass Elevator at Hutchings and Sealy Building- Galveston TX
Переглядів 3212 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 7/26/24 This is a more updated take on this Awesome Modernized Westinghouse Elevator. I do like the new motor a lot better than the previous replaced motor (by Schindler I believe). I don't know who modded this though but it's very similar to a Schindler HXPress mod. The old Westy will be sadly missed though even if it's not original to the building. Overall Rating: B- I hope yo...
Update on Green Garage Elevator (By Macy's)- Houston Galleria Mall- Houston TX
Переглядів 6 тис.2 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 5/29/24 This is a May of 2024 update on how one of the green garage elevators are doing. Doesn't seem to be doing as bad as when I last rode it in 2020, but it still needs more love though. It's honestly really funny that the newer extension part of the mall seems to have the most messed up and glitchy elevators, only exception is of course Nordstrom. Overall Rating: D I hope yo...

Переглядів 6992 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 8/6/24 This model is very rare with the only other ones that I've seen were at the red garage at the Houston Galleria. There is also a massive club level at the top which was what the C stood for. Overall Rating: B- I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
NEW CABS AND NOW KEY-CARDED| Otis traction Elevators- Four Seasons Hotel in Houston TX
Переглядів 5862 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 8/6/24 These used to be Otis Lexan at some point and even after the modernization the cabs were still kept original. They did a good job on the new ones too but sadly, they’re now key-carded. Overall Rating: B I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
Interesting Shaped Otis Glass Elevator- Four Seasons Hotel in Houston TX
Переглядів 2033 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 8/6/24 This elevator had a rather interesting shape like other elevators I've seen in downtown Houston. A lot which are found in the tunnel system including Pennzoil Place. Unfortunately since cities these days aren't getting safer the main guest elevators are now fully key-carded. They even got new cabs now which is cool, but I might like the older ones better. Other than that ...

Then later I rewatched the video and it didn’t seem like he was rude after all because at the time I didn’t know that there was a parking garage underneath the building. The reason I got ejected b...
Nice Schindler 400A Glass Elevator at the Tremont House Hotel in Galveston TX
Переглядів 2073 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 7/26/24 It was obviously something else at some point but it is a very nice above average hotel elevator. The people there seemed friendly too and is one of my favorite elevators in Galveston. Overall Rating: A- From an A-F Scale I hope you enjoyed this video and have a nice day:)
3 SPEED DOOR | Otis Traction Elevators- U.S. National Bank in Galveston TX
Переглядів 11 тис.3 місяці тому
Video Recorded: 7/26/24 That was quite a surprising find right here that I found a tastefully modded Otis elevator that had a 3 speed door which is something that I never see. I wouldn't say that the motor is original because I think that's an Elevonic 401 motor that I heard but chances are these were probably manually operated at one point. Diffidently my most favorite elevator in Galveston an...

Awesome fun
Amazing dude
Nice 😊😊
OMG YOU WERE SO LUCKY 🫣🤯
What he did is illegal because that elevator goes to the tunnel which is public. I just subscribed to your channel.
@@PlanetEscalators thanks I appreciate it man and I’ve meet mostly nothing but good people while filming elevators in Houston so far but he seems to be one of the few paranoid ones.
How you stuck long
@@bsvenadam like a few minutes
Amazing man
Sadly, this building is always locked.
@@JimLiElevators I just went through the hotel to it but the main doors were locked.
Nice mod
Awesome elevators
Awesome job
@@BrytonJones6063 It was really funny
@ if I have a come to Houston, I’ll let you know when I come around ok because I do travel all the time because I have ADHD as well as with autism and I love elevators 🛗🩷😍😍
@ Sure you can always let me know and we could find a way to private message so if you come then we could find a meeting spot.
@@hammerhead_elevators3613 yeah I’ll be like down there this year like all they contact you from there and I will let you know when I arrive. I’ll be back at the Galleria mall.
@ That’s a decent place.
Why is says 4 in floor indicator but its M on braille
It’s just the way it’s set up and I believe there’s levels under the building.
@@hammerhead_elevators3613 ... all right if is levels are under the building
Awesome band new renovations
Innovated Schindler
@@bsvenadam Modernized by Fujitec
Its mad bs moon mod
@@bsvenadam A lot better than Innovation
It sounds like it was from InterContinental San Antonio Riverwalk (used to be a Wyndham)
Awesome Schindler elevators
I think at the end he actually said “Come On Out” instead of going up and I think he thought that I was trying to get out of the tunnels so he told me to go to a garage.
Wow new cab
Awesome ❤❤
Awesome man
Nice elevators
Its modernized elevator it does has epic motor
Nice elevator 👍
Awesome.❤🎉. 0:21 .
Houston keeps going downhill, not as low as the north east but not nearly as good as a decade ago.
Houston had actually not been too friendly when it comes to photography. Sugar Land (which is where I live) was a lot more hostile than Houston itself. When I first came to Downtown Houston in 2009, I’ve been busted for like at least once or twice the first few times, but was at least chill starting from 2010 all the way to 2016 is when things started going downhill, and now only to continue to get worse. Gage Williams came to Houston in 2019 and has gotten busted quite a lot, and so have I. This is why I don’t film in high-rise office buildings anymore to avoid having my whole entire life planned ahead of me ruined.
@@JimLiElevators I'm wondering if Houston went downhill due to various shootings. I don't think anyone at a high rise office building would ruin your life but so many unbelievable things have happened that I understand if you are playing it safe.
@@aceee06 Pardon me for responding back to this comment that is a month old now. Ruining my life, Alan, is basically when you are having to get the police and/or authorities involved just over a 100% minor incident. Do you remember the time when Jared (PAelevators) got arrested for taking photos of inside a local mall to preserve a memory before demolition? Not to mention, 2 enthusiasts from both Pittsburgh and originally El Paso had the FBI involved for filming the elevators in their local facilities before. It’s no joke. Big cities (and even including suburbs) as well as other metropolitan areas have been the absolute worst case scenario of getting busted which is exactly why I am wanting to play it safe to avoid trouble any further that could be the cost of my well-being. Like if I got arrested for example for just simply photographing an elevator, that probably would be the last thing I would ever face resulting to seriously crumble up my future.
@@JimLiElevators I did not hear about Jared getting arrested just for filming in a mall. That is absolutely ABSURD to arrest someone for filming in a mall especially when it is about to be demolished. I would stay clear of FBI facilities but if you stumble in one by accident and don't realize it until afterwards I'd make it an undisclosed location.
@@JimLiElevatorsMan it is just ABSOLUTELY Horrific what I see elevator photographers go through and I’ve seen that PA Elevators also had the cops called on him once just for filming in a random office building and one of the tenants was literally caught LYING to a police officer which that’s guy thankfully received a fine. Atlanta I heard is also pretty bad and I saw Elevating Western Washington at the 100 Peachtree garage where a security guard stalked him out of the facility and even threatened to assault him just for filming the guard on a public sidewalk. Thankfully, I’ve had a great experience filming around and in Houston so far but I’ll still wouldn’t let my guard down though.
Oh dear 😞😞
Yeah it kind of sucked but at least it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was.
@@hammerhead_elevators3613 I just don’t get why on 9/11 they just don’t appreciate photography on that one day only
Awesome motor
Amazing elevators
Amazing elevators
Awesome elevator
I noticed that the elevator was a little bit low on oil but not bad.
You think is third mod
@@bsvenadam A third party mod is basically when a non big elevator brand other than Otis, Schindler, TKE, and KONE and a bit more mods it with generic buttons.
@@hammerhead_elevators3613 you mean Innovation
Awesome video
@@BrytonJones6063 Thanks man, it turned out really well.
@@hammerhead_elevators3613no problem I might go to Houston this year
@@BrytonJones6063 That’s cool I saw that you were recently in Austin too so maybe we could meet up sometime.
Amazing elevators
You forgot to film these Westinghouse RT elevators at my brother's doctor appointment (Bayshore Medical Plaza)
@@johnrubio1999 Wow I should do that eventually

I like RT
