Side Door! Modernized Hydraulic Pedway Elevator @ Chicago City Hall - Chicago, IL

(7-30-19) This is a very unique elevator that goes down to the pedway. I'm not sure what brand it is, but it appears to be recently modernized. It's not super often that I find an elevator with a side door, so this was quite the treat.

One video of the elevator in original condition exists.

This thing must’ve been modernized right before you filmed this. This had Adams survivor when I rode it shortly before.

Darn!

[@Skivator]

Now that’s cool!

The two garage banks at the 900 North Michigan have one elevator car that has a two-speed single-slide door that is TALLER than the main center-opening door, which is even weirder!

[@ECFE]

I guarantee you that is a Schindler mod.

The Paramount in Huntington, NY has that side door but aside from the Innovation and the glass doors. Theirs have GAL VR fixtures. Otherwise, this is rather interesting though

Nope, innovation prestige.

[@SamSitar]

is the pedway on P1 or P2?

[@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty]

Sam Sitar both. It changes levels here.

[@jackziegler7696]

this needs the reflex... but overall very nice, not a bad mod at all

[@stlelevators]

Yeah, that's for sure.

[@icecolespears]

That elevator could be an MEI

[@stlelevators]

Maybe an MEI pump, but not a VMI controller.

[@jonathankoster547]

Nice elevator. But way to slow! It could use the reflex leveling system to speed up the leveling.

[@BuildingToursForLife1660-4]

Whoever modded this did a good job and this also has a nice motor but what was the original brand and buttons? I'd rather see the original buttons

Originally Montgomery with Adams Survivor Plus

This one starts leveling far too early!

[@tkefan29]

A bit slow to start moving

Maybe a Dover?? Hard to say.
