  • The Crowne Plaza in downtown Clayton has been one of my most-visited locations over the years. I've visited this property solo, and with Dieselducy, Cannycart, Streetcar1743, Alpaljl, SchindlerHaughton, and CVE9120. Seriously. When I heard the hotel was modernizing their elevators, I figured I had to go back and get some before/after footage. And I'm glad I did. To show the changes, I used footage from my many past visits to the property.

    Wow they really did modernize these elevators! All of them that were modernized look so much different!

    Wow,I do like the new cabs!

    They should have used something to make it look old like CJ Anderson and how they make there panels look old but the way they made the Doors look on the outside look like they didn't even think of what they were doing if you know what i mean

      ***** The mirrored doors on the outside completely clash with the hallways! My only guess is that they are planning to eventually renovate the hallways to match, but why?

    I prefer a colorful cab rather than this. BTW, this is a Schindler 6400NA mod on the second elevators I saw.

    That is a LOT of mirrors!

    I think I was the person who told you about this modernization originally. I never rode the old dover but I did ride the old Bemiston elevators. I hate that those were modernized

    Modding the Dover...okay, this one looks better.
    THe Otis elevators.....Totally unnecessary and took away some of the charm of this hotel.

      THANK YOU!!!! But anyways it's series 4 so it's still somewhat good.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому +2

      Yep. I agree a hundred percent. If this was series 7 I would've thrown up all over my desk.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому +2

      Although the Series 4 mods weren't all that bad.

      You have to admit, stainless steel matches everything, even in cases like the old Otis elevators that Schindler got their hands on.

    They probably took out the elevator but kept the outside buttons

    How many Dan's and Jacob's are there?

  • @WestCoastElevators
    @WestCoastElevators 9 років тому +1

    They went around modernizing the elevators but not the hallways? What a shame to see so many vintage elevators destroyed.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому

      It could've been worse. These could've gotten white series 7 mods! At least it's the newer series 4 so it's not as bad but still.

  • @TimothyMTran706
    @TimothyMTran706 6 років тому +1

    Did it remodeled or the Otis?

  • @TimothyMTran706
    @TimothyMTran706 6 років тому +1

    It’s weird that they Modernized with Otis Series 1 and 4 Fixtures

    When was the Bemiston Tower built?

  • @baelevatorsmore728
    @baelevatorsmore728 2 роки тому

    I’ve stayed at this hotel before! I think they’ve redone some of the hallways by now. I filmed both main banks of elevators and I may post them eventually. Gotta do a face reveal first though.

    they have to renovate now what the heck was the manager thinking ok'ing this

  • @stevenk8209
    @stevenk8209 9 років тому +2

    The mod is OK... I think the older one was a bit better though :(... I like the modern look though!

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому

      I like the Otis Series 4 mods kinda. they were ok

  • @alpaljl
    @alpaljl 9 років тому +2

    WHY?!?!?! Just, why?

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому

      Schindler did a VERY nice job on the 8-story high risers but still it's a shame to see good old otises and dovers go into the dump

  • @infxiniti8984

    Main tower got modded

  • @exoticcar5482
    @exoticcar5482 9 років тому +7

    Here we go again, more pointless mods done by jerks who want to ruin perfectly good elevators and try to get money with the building wanting to fix their crappy new parts

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому +1

      Agreed.

    • @JimLiElevators
      @JimLiElevators 6 років тому +1

      Yup!

    • @EWPA14
      @EWPA14 6 років тому +1

      And the worst part in my opinion is that the new elevators in no way matched the style of the rest of the building, unless if they were planning on renovating the rest of the hotel that went to a similar style the new elevators have.

    • @axn-
      @axn- 5 років тому +1

      Yep

    • @FloridianElevators
      @FloridianElevators 3 роки тому +1

      Completely agreed

  • @idl3k_elev
    @idl3k_elev 8 років тому +1

    Just HORRIBLE mods! That boring mirrored cab doesn't blend very well with the wodden walled corridors and looks rather dull. They should have at least leave the original cab alone and replaced the fixtures.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому +1

      +IDLift3000 yeah but I like how they had common sense and used red otis series 7 instead of Blue-Neric OTIS Rapies 7.

    • @FloridianElevators
      @FloridianElevators 8 років тому

      +Uphoisting Experiences by Technicalboy3000 This is actually a Series 4 mod.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому

      Floridian Elevators How? It doesn't use that big boggy floor indicator that series 4 elevators always use.

    • @FloridianElevators
      @FloridianElevators 8 років тому +1

      Uphoisting Experiences by Technicalboy3000 Series 4 INSTALLATIONS use that BIG Rectangle "boggy" indicator. But Series 4 mods use ACME indicators.

    • @blueauraretriever
      @blueauraretriever 8 років тому +1

      Floridian Elevators What the... I guess it wasn't using a red phone button then because if it did then i will be confused
