Mini tour the Louisiana State Capitol with some Historic Otis elevators modded with Series 2

Filmed on March 15, 2014: The main elevators, transfer elevators, and a really vintage Otis from the 1950's all modded with Series 2 fixtures. But still, these are VERY NICE as we take an AWESOME tour of this fine property. Gluse has also filmed this 6 years ago.
Enjoy!!! :)

Incredibly nice elevator, and those hall stations are CJ Anderson Series-4, which have the column border. Unfortunately, the other fixtures are Otis Series-2, but it would be interesting if they used CJ Anderson Series 4 (Neoclassic Revival Column Border) car stations/hall stations, & CJ Anderson Series-2 Architectural Historic) lanterns and floor indicators.

Extremely beautiful elevators

[@sayannlovell8163]

My dad worked on those when they updated it from manual to what it is today.

[@elevatordailies]

Thank you for finding this. The hall lanterns appear to be original as does the floor indicator on the main floor. Would have loved to see what the original fixtures looked like.

Imagine being taught LA History from an elevator photographer

[@nikospodas6201]

I LIKE THE DESIGN FACES ON THE DOORS

[@ElevatingOregonsince]

The round thing is the state seal probably. Oregon has a very similar thing and it's the state seal

[@gluse]

THANK YOU!!!! For filming this. I remember when I was really little when I was like 4 or 5 years old I remember these elevator having lexan buttons

[@JimLiElevators]

You're right. This used to have Lexan. If you are in Baton Rouge again, I HIGHLY recommend you checking out this elevator at 9:40.

[@gluse]

I've seen it but there was a sign that said Government Use Only

[@JimLiElevators]

gluse I just rode it and no trouble caused. I just only took it once.

[@ginatchen]

[@ginatchen]

Hi jimlielevators I’m a huge fan of you

[@shawnthibodeaux]

when i visited close to 10 years ago there was a time capsule by those statues. I always wondered what happened to it and what was in it does anybody have any info?

[@jrleblanc65]

I live close to the Mississippi river

[@SpaceboyYT]

I took these elevators in 2015 or 2014

[@gabriel20004019]

floors 28-30 are restricted floors.

[@tswub]

gabriel oliveira and also 26.

[@lucasnassar2778]

I didn't like this modernization from the first elevator,they could keep the old fixtures inside

[@ALANSWEETIES99]

Amazing these elevators isn't! ^_^

[@SpaceboyYT]

But I could not take the government elevator because my mom or dad would not let me

[@DylanR99]

Huh… in that case, how did he end up getting permission to film this elevator then?

[@chase2559]

No more than "8" adults

[@JimLiElevators]

I just recently came back here again! Elevators are still the same as always, but the observation deck is unfortunately closed. Sign still remains.
