elevaTOUR of the City Museum in St. Louis MO with Historic OTIS Microdrive Freight Elevators

(December 2017) Enjoy as we get to snoop around in areas that are normally off limits to the public. We see the roof, storage areas, a closed off banquet area, and of course all the elevators! I hope you enjoy this tour. I don't feel i did the best job with it but I tried. It should have been posted a long time ago.

The building itself is very neat and the freight elevator is very nice

[@DieselDucy]

I love this place

[@trinamiller100]

We went to the City Museum in St Louis back in 2012 after I had my cardio version at Children’s Mercy in Kansas City.

[@DieselDucy]

Totally awesome

[@Angelacreatesart]

I worked in art city I was the artist there for 16 years did we meet?

[@MatthewLindstrom-iq7nu]

All of the elevators are epic

[@DieselDucy]

they are.

[@nickelevatorfan4243]

Awesome video! I always have loved these elevaTOUR videos! This place is very cool and the elevators are definitely awesome! Especially the freight elevators and most of all the pinwheel elevator! It looks even cooler when it spins backwards going up than when it spins forwards going down. I’ve never heard of a micro-drive elevator before. The museum is definitely like no other one I’ve seen before or heard of before.

[@DieselDucy]

Thanks so much.

[@nickelevatorfan4243]

@@DieselDucy ur welcome!

[@Angelacreatesart]

Ahhh I miss Al the organ guy so much! Worked with him for 16 years lived there at museum for 1 of those

[@DieselDucy]

Al is awesome :)

[@DylanLTindall]

This looks like a very cool place.

[@DieselDucy]

It is. It is a playground for adults

[@officialSgtPepperArc360]

0:25 - Oh yeah, I remember that!

[@DieselDucy]

Awesome

[@kane_7_]

I’ve been on the public elevator before!

[@DieselDucy]

Even those are cool

[@mjloveselevators]

Great video, Andrew! 🎉🎉

[@DieselDucy]

Glad you liked it! Thanks so much.

[@evana6425]

Those elevators were great Andrew glad we also see and ride the glass elevator and show the tour of the museum as well. Perfect elevators and the place itself

[@DieselDucy]

Awesome

[@patrickrichmond9896]

When I was with Al, he and I were talking about many organs and other organ clubs.

[@DieselDucy]

Al and the organ are amazing. Your skills on a keyboard are also amazing.

[@craigbrowning9448]

​@@DieselDucy I was wondering if you could post a link to the previous video I thought I heard you did at this location?

[@TonyVRailfanning]

Really neat to see 2 freight elevators in one shaft. Move pretty quick for something that’s that old

[@DieselDucy]

It was awesome

[@BrandondHasty]

With stl elevators Otis elevator with a view of the machine room 11 doesn't work door close works freight elevator fence gate door no floor indicator

[@DieselDucy]

Yep

[@rarleyposting5546]

I remember being able to ride that freight elevator. All I did was ask!

[@DieselDucy]

back in the day.

[@22408aaron]

Pressing call cancel will generally stop the combination sequence so you don't have to wait for it to time out. Also, that banquet space is super liminal... it's a real shame they shut it down!

[@DieselDucy]

I’ll try that next time I come across a combo lock like that. There is so much space in this building that has amazing potential.

[@MatthewLindstrom-iq7nu]

The super bowl that we will not talk about is when this came out

[@DieselDucy]

im confused.

[@Conwolf_99]

When will you do a light tour

[@DieselDucy]

When I’m off in Roanoke sometime

[@DiegoElevators44]

What about the Wurlitzer theater Oregon? Is that still there or did they shut it down?

[@DieselDucy]

It’s still there 😃

[@jayo1212]

@5:06 Is that the elevator machinery in that glass tower there?

[@DieselDucy]

i believe so.
