I have waited YEARS for you to see these elevators! Probably the most awesome I've ever ridden besides the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta. It's so weird seeing these with the mod though. I always remember them with the custom Impulses. I loved how each elevator had two up/down indicators, and on two of the cars the chimes were out-of-tune...it was discordant and awesome! A maintenance person told me as a kid that the 16th floor just has the motors to the main elevators. Don't know the accuracy of that, but I believed it. Weird how the service elevators are the only ones that go to the pool floor.
This building itself is so stunning and beautiful. The elevators itself are great. But thank goodness these are glass. I noticed the bang going up that was a little scary.
I find it interesting how TKE is now using the pure MAD fixture package (some type of BS button with the Julius surround braille and a Giotto LCD indicator) like what they did to this and the new parking elevator at the Sheraton in Nashville instead of using TKE's typical MAD mod elements. Honestly, the quality feels more like a downgrade, despite TKE generally being the best of the big four companies. Would've personally been more sold on a mod had it have Innovation, EPCO, Dupar, or CJ Anderson fixtures with a CE Electronics or EMotive indicator for quality's sake. Anyways, these are still awesome and it looks like they did a good job with this.
Brand/Company: ThyssenKrupp Buttons: MAD BS Door type: Center Opening Number of elevators: 5 Number of floors: 16 So these used to be Dover? You put Murphy in the description! I'm confused on what these were originally!
I definitely remember these elevators‼️ I have been watching these for a long time by JimLiElevators‼️ I did see these from cannycart and TJElevatorfan a long time ago too, but mainly I watched JimLiElevators’ videos of these elevators. I actually did see this hotel from the Gatlinburg Skybridge/Skypark in the distance, but I wasn’t able to visit this hotel unfortunately :(. Next time I’m here, I definitely hope to come here and see these elevators in person myself. These are awesome, famous, and very interesting elevators, as is the hotel itself too. The internal elevators are staff elevators, but they also access the ground floor which the scenic elevators do not, so the internal ones are also the parking garage elevators as well.

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching
@@DieselDucyYes, thank you for filming! This brought back a lot of pleasant memories from growing up, with people who aren't with us any longer.
These are epic
I love this elevators 🩷🩷
Love these!!! ❤
Amazing lifts
Thanks
love the atrium at this hotel! 🥰
Me too
This building itself is so stunning and beautiful. The elevators itself are great. But thank goodness these are glass. I noticed the bang going up that was a little scary.
I love when buildings are round
Too bad that it was modernized by custom impulse
This place is amazing
I was actually there last year and I loved everything about the hotel. And the elevators especially 😊
Awesome!
Man I wish they’d still be Dovers by the time I get there
I saw a video on JimLiElevators’ channel from a long time ago when they had custom impulse.
Yep. They did. However he was incorrect about US elevator. Us elevator was not around when this hotel was built.
There was another guy who filmed these in 2009 before Jim did he also said they where US at one point
Ive ridden these elevators before, they run very smooth
They are nice
Jimlielevators filmed this elevator years ago
Yep
These actually were originally United States, but then modernized By Dover With impulse before, Thyssenkrupp got to them
I don’t believe these were us. Originally Murphy.
I've seen those fixtures before but with red LED
Awesome
Ya know these were Custom Impulse Traflomatic IVs before this mod
Yep :)
Actually these were originally US but then modded with custom dover impulse in the 1990s and then modded by TK.
0:42 0:47 2:03 2:12 Do you just FART???????????
Wait really? First originally U.S? In the description Andrew says these were originally Murphy! I'm really confused of what these were originally!
Jimlielevators has filmed here in 2014. He said they were originally US with circle or square fixtures.
@@elevatorsincity gotcha but then Andrew says in the description that they were Murphy after that?
@@BuildingToursForLife1660-4 if you look in older videos you will see the floor plate says Murphy.

@@DieselDucy ur welcome, anytime DieselDucy, it’s always a pleasure watching your videos!
Who wanted to see the 16 floor?
I wonder what was up there
I stayed at the hotel but I couldn’t go up there :(
I love the views on the scenic ones, but I absolutely hate the new mods.
Not particularly sold on them going with the typical MAD mod. Innovation would've been a better choice in general
I liked the older ones better.
Dover is first modernization
Thyssenkrupp is second modernization
Yep
SUPER tall elevators but... it skipped 13th floor?
Murphy modded by thyssenkrupp grocery store beep door close works
Yep
