Vintage Westinghouse Escalators @ Sears (CLOSED), Livonia, MI

Filmed in 4K with Samsung Galaxy S9 on January 10, 2020
These are the escalators at Sears in Livonia, formerly part of the Livonia Mall. These are completely original from the store's opening in 1964, and didn't see much traffic in the store's last few months.
Unfortunately, this store is now closed and will likely be demolished. I was not able to get a retake due to the coronavirus pandemic. This was one of my childhood Sears stores and I have have a lot of memories from this store.

Awesome video TKE! Shame this store is closed! Quick question, when safe to do so, will you film the escalators, elevators, and moving walkways at DTW sometime?😸😸
