High-rise original vintage Haughton service elevator - Centre City Tower - Downtown, Pittsburgh, PA

[Recorded 06/04/19]
UPDATE - 04/2023: Sadly Schindler is now modernizing these. This car's now integrated with the rest of the cars on the PORT Technology. This is now car "H2."
This is a nice and fast completely original Haughton elevator here with Type-"H" fixtures and serves almost 30 floors! The main elevators also have the original fixtures as well as Innovation Universal added by Industrial Commercial.
Installed 1969 .
NOTE: I apologize if there are any random audio cut-outs (especially at the beginning), but my microphone was having issues at the time .

Epic lift!

Seeing vids of the Main Elevators, I think the controllers on them are original judging by how the indicators act, but obviously the floor passing chime was added along with the Innovation fixtures. This however is 100% original.

I think they are too despite what I heard.

[@Dwall44]

Sad. Of course they were modernized… Did you or anyone else get parts from here? I think those buttons are rare.

[@EWPA14]

Sadly no.

How do you get to these? I want to see these.

[@EWPA14]

I think we just walked in if I re-call correctly. But if security directs you to like an iPad or something to sign in, I would just say "Wrong building" rather than trying to explain what you're doing (because often that makes it more difficult & suspicious).

I wonder if these will get MAD BS or PORT.

[@EWPA14]

I'm sure they'll have MAD BS inside. The brochures mention "touchless" elevators so they'll probably have PORT.
