Dover Impulse Hydraulic Elevator at Columbia Plaza in Kalamazoo, MI

This building originally operated as the famous Columbia Hotel. It opened in 1909 and shut its doors in 1982, due to huge declines in Downtown areas around that time. In 1983, the building was converted to an office building. This could possible be one of the oldest Impulses around, since Dover introduced Impulse just a year prior. This of course, isn't the original elevator from the hotel. It was ripped out when the building was converted into office space in the 80's. This elevator is really neat and gives a nice view of the atrium of this fine building. The old wooden cab is also really nice. Please like, comment, and subscribe and thanks of watching!

0:50 that sounds like a U.S. Elevator chime.
