1983 Otis Lexan High Speed Traction Service Elevator - Suntrust Plaza - Richmond, VA

(With TheWildEeper) This is the service elevator at the Suntrust Plaza, one of the tallest buildings in Richmond. I never knew the "old Lexan" was made this long. We also tried to get a video of the main elevators... they were WAY too busy.

The floor announcements in the main elevators sound like what the Atlanta Marriott Marquis used to have.

It’s insanely grotty and scary like no other elevator I have ever been in

[@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams]

This has got to be one of the oldest, scariest, tallest, grottiest elevators I know of! It's really old and grotty, it looks like it could break down any moment.

[@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams]

Well the buttons are really old

[@ElevatingArizonaByGageWilliams]

And also the indicator

This is a nice elevator and I will get VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY MAD if it gets modernized.

[@FloridianElevators]

Specialty Elevators and UEE's by Technicalboy3000 These are Elevonic 401 elevators!!!!! And they have the OLDER Lexan!!! I MIGHT be going to Richmond next fall, and if so, I want to ride this beauty!!!

[@blueauraretriever]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I didn't know this was elevonic 401

[@22408aaron]

The service elevator is not Elevonic 401... Why would a single elevator need such an advanced elevator system anyways?

[@blueauraretriever]

DUH! Richmond's going the same way as Florida! Anyways, take care and have a happy Christmas & merry new year

[@FloridianElevators]

Well, it is indeed computer based/solid state microprocessor controlled. I can tell because of the floor passing chime and the way the controller acts.
