(FINAL RIDE!!) Schindler Traction Parking Elevators @ The Shops at Sunset Place, South Miami, FL

Filmed on 10/31/24
Disclaimer: You may be wondering why this is being premiered, and why the day is a long time away. I’m premiering this basically to let y’all know if you are in the area to come check these out, because these may be gone by the time this uploads. Not entirely sure though. And my videos are being uploaded 3 times a day or a period in order, and the day this lands on is the day this is being premiered. This is being uploaded in November 2024 so i apologize for the date being so far away lol.
But yeah if you are in Miami and want to see these i’d say get on these, basically the reason i’m premiering.
This entire mall has seen much better days. This is now gonna be the 2nd failed project here, first being the Bakery Centre from 1980s-1996, and now this. Honestly I think it’s kinda dumb they are gonna build a new mall on this given the fact now the past two malls here failed.
But this is a childhood mall of mine and these are childhood elevators for me. Kinda sad they are going but honestly these have just gotten worn through the years.
Installed in ‘97-‘98, innovated in 2009. These used to have MT fixtures

Absolute bummer hearing that this place may potentially be torn down. It reminds me of what they did to CityPlace here in West Palm, they tore down the area with the theater and all the clubs/lounges so they could put in some office towers that they haven't even broken ground on yet.

UPDATE: This place is still around and it’s 4 days before premiering. I guess there was no point in premiering this because I thought this was gonna be gone by the time this uploads. This place is still very much around and i have no clue when this place is gonna go
