Beautiful ,historic, building.

[@Ih8kone]

This building is now almost entirely occupied and these elevators have been modded.

[@andrewzapar2585]

Oh good. I was going to ask how it was doing

[@Ih8kone]

@@andrewzapar2585 Well, at least it didn't meet the same fate as The Central Building in Clayton.

[@bluazur55]

What a shame. I remember going in it as a kid. I seem to remember the side doors off the main corridor were individual businesses.

[@SamSitar]

looks good for abandoned building.

[@shmulstvgone3169]

People program restricted elevators and elevators that go to restricted floors that are unlocked to not close when you push the button or door close because they want higher authorities walking by to catch you.

[@hede151]

kewl vid keep it up

[@urgbos]

Please more urbex

[@HungryGuyStories]

I wonder if they could convert it to residential space, either apartments or condos.

[@ESHINEELECTRO]

Which parking garage did we see through the window ?

[@merrickhopkins6990]

Where's the restrooms on each floor of the building?

[@mountaincentralelevatorsmore]

I think you have the Roanoke times with you

[@DieselDucy]

Yep they were.

[@OldElevNew]

Or, you know, they park at the ground floor?

[@JTA-uu5lj]

it got cut off at the end

[@HungryGuyStories]

I just noticed something odd. You go to a floor, get off, then a few minutes later you have to wait for the elevator??? It should still be there! Someone else is there using the elevators...

[@Evilgidgit4Ever]

Looks like a pretty amazing building. Why is half of it abandoned? And who might your companion be?

[@Ih8kone]

This building is now almost completely occupied and the elevators have been modded by Otis.

[@kierenmgp]

does that building have stairs O.o

[@MeaghanEdwards]

Wow, neat, didn't know you did urban exploring too! Shameful waste of a building, should use it for affordable housing, etc.

[@Ih8kone]

It is now almost entirely occupied.

[@williamscoufaras7045]

Can u do a update on this building soon?

[@Ih8kone]

This building is now almost entirely occupied and these elevators got modded by Otis.

[@TheElevatorGuy87]

I think the other guy is from the Roanoke Times...

[@toddthevloggingguy4720]

Why here all peeps not here no more

[@HungryGuyStories]

Yeah, some elevators do that. It's really annoying...

[@jshaw1193]

why is there a guy with a camera fliming

[@seanjuth]

love the ms2 pull stations This this building is badly 70s

[@BCsVators]

sean juth Actually This Building is from 1964.

[@jonathancreveling5658]

He said it was built back in the 50s

[@jonathancreveling5658]

I LOVE the wood paneling and wallpaper in this building

[@exoticcar5482]

@@jonathancreveling5658 He was wrong

Silent Hill 3 :)

[@scuds03]

You should go at Midnight and find ghosts

[@QuietSundayLibrary]

What a perfectly good waste of real estate space; I agree with HungryGuyStories -- it'd be great if they didn't allow this wonderful building to remain in a state of atrophy and proceeded to convert it into some sort of residential space. The potential is definitely there.

[@Iwawrtch]

There must be a reason why they left it vacant with stuff everywhere. Maybe it is haunted?

[@railroadelevators9258]

UPDATE- These Dominion Elevators were modded by Otis

[@Ih8kone]

And this building is now almost entirely occupied.

[@CarloCars13]

It got a mod by Otis

[@pri0004]

awesome vid thx but what is on the other level

[@shmulstvgone3169]

Offices

[@stphinkle]

Wootenhart was a law firm.

[@seanjuth]

Stephen Hinkle obviously it says plc

[@jonathancreveling5658]

Plc means it's a law firm

[@upheritage6]

qhats so special bout elevators?

[@Ih8kone]

They WERE vintage until Otis RAPED them.
