[@HaileyJohn12]

I like the motor.

[@stlelevators]

I do too.

[@elevatingmetrodetroit7072]

This elevator seems pretty epic. By the way,I’m guessing the chimes are replaced too.

[@stlelevators]

Yes

[@lenaa2003]

There’s also a JCP in Miami (Dadeland) that also has an innovated elevator with a loud motor. Except that one has the square indicator!

[@stlelevators]

Square innovation?

[@lenaa2003]

Circle innovation, square Epco!

[@evana6425]

Very nice

[@brandonmiller6629]

Interesting that JCPenney went with a Haughton elevator & not a Dover of Montgomery like they normally did in the '60s & '70s.

[@BuildingToursForLife1660-4]

This probably had older Haughton black buttons

[@stlelevators]

It had the white mushroom buttons according to Andrew.

Nice booming baritone motor!

[@stlelevators]

Yeah!

[@icecolespears]

Installed in 1971

[@stlelevators]

Yes and JCP is the only store left from the original mall.

[@Dana_Danarosana]

Harder and harder to find these (even w/ the slap-on).

[@stlelevators]

I’m happy it is still mostly original.
