One of the last of the Elevonic breed Loved the architecture on this

[@MilwaukeeCountyElevators]

Woah! Those things are fast!

[@NWIndianaElevators]

Been there, done that (twice)! Those are fun to ride on!

[@shobharegmi5944]

There are 94 floors in Aqua Tower and it also includes 13

[@SirensAndElevators]

I was about to say that you have a video of these from last year until I realized that was the mid-rise bank

[@GantesFamily]

This otis elevator needs to have the nineties

[@mallguy8970]

This has got to be a record of an Otis Series Gen 2.

[@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty]

This isn’t Gen2 actually, it’s an Elevonic 411. Gen2’s can only go up as high as 25 floors, I believe.

Ironic that "aqua" wouldn't have blue buttons

[@restroomselevatorsofflorid2102]

Or indicators, LMAO 🤣

[@elevatingthemidwest2379]

Fr. Not even a blue carpet or that flooring style used at Aloft hotels. 😂

[@elevatingthemidwest2379]

[@nurmahmoodmuti7380]

This elevator serves all the floors

[@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty]

It does. I’m not sure why, it’s the only one in the bank that does.

[@duonghoangminh7634]

They are all floors served.

[@QuarioQuario54321]

Is this hard to get into?

[@TheElevatorandAirplaneFinder]

Probably is

[@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty]

QuarioQuario54321 I had reason to be here. You’ll never ride these.

[@NWIndianaElevators]

Yes, it is! There is a lot of security in this place...

[@SirensAndElevators]

this building is extremely difficult to get into. I know some people that got arrested from trying to get in here

[@Skivator]

Good morning button licking freak, I don’t get why you’ll never get this, but you’re not riding these. SPS8 has a reason to be here and all of these buildings are secure, ok? So stop asking thanks

[@PNWElevatorAviation]

I bet you can press all the FLOORS LOL!!
