Fully Scenic MEI Hydraulic Elevator at Tysons Corner Center Mall, Tysons Corner, VA

Recorded: 9/6/2020
The wait is finally over! After two years of living just outside of D.C., I finally got a chance to film all of the elevators (with a few exceptions) at Tyson's Corner Center Mall (Main/1.0). This is the first mall elevator you come across if you are starting from the Bloomingdale's side of the mall. This elevator was added in probably in the mid 2000s. It's a Minnesota/MEI, but it was probably installed by Schindler or maybe Kone. I was really lucky to get NOT ONE, but TWO solo round trips on this. It is usually extremely busy.

this is a childhood elevator, i live very close to this, sadly you think its good, but it was at its prime about 5 years ago, it still runs well, but it was great back around 2015

I'm surprised that you know the difference between bruiser and nema 4x. Even I can barely tell the difference (not trying to boast)

[@AdazElevatorz]

In Nema 4x, only the center of the button pushes, whereas in bruiser, the angled edge is part of the button and also pushes.
