WORLD FAMOUS Schindler Port Traction High Rise elevators @ The New York Marriott Marquis NYC

Well, we are back after 4 years at the Marriott Marquis in NYC. I filmed these things awhile back, original take in 2014, never will upload this take, and a LOT has changed elevator and hotel wise since I last came here. The system is now completely revamped and the PORT mod has been completed. I'm assuming the Port mod came along with the hotel renovations this mod happened while the hotel was being renovated. I do and don't miss the Miconic 10s in some ways. The system really needed this upgrade. The old system kept having trouble and getting stuck, didn't know what it was doing, and kept acting weird in many scenarios. For example: It would call cars out of random whenever a call was placed on any keypad. This ultimately slowed down the entire system, and complaints were made. Another thing is handicapped mode. The last few years before they were modernized, they developed this habit of calling cars K and L and not using the allocated system that they were originally designed to do. The Port update straightened all of this out, and now they are performing amazing and much better than I have ever seen it.
However, the mod did bring some sad faces to the community. First of all, when you use handicapped, it doesn't chime like the way it used to. A lot of filmers miss that chime, but my reasoning to believe the reason they didn't keep it was because of how loud it was on the guest floors, and having the potential to wake up guests whenever it is used. One thing is I think the handicapped mode should work group by group instead of floor by floor. Another thing that is annoying is now as of June 2021 or earlier, the hotel key carded off the guest room floors. So, it is now hard if you want to film these nonstop. You can still access the view elevators between 5 PM ands 11 PM, but sometimes, not often, they get very busy. This wasn't an issue for me as I was staying here, but if you aren't, it is hard to film these elevators. My best recommendation is to try 43 upon walking in before trying other methods to get up. The best idea is to talk to the front desk, and try to have someone swipe you through to ride from the desk. I don't know how successful this would be but it is worth a shot. Or, better yet, if you can find a good rate here like we did, just stay here to avoid having to do all of this. This isn't the worst keycard system because you only need a key when you're coming up from the lobby and meeting room floors. Once you're on the guestroom floors, you can go anywhere without a key. So that's nice.
Putting this into simple words, these things are still amazing and fun to ride, but they can be a pain now to ride thanks to the keycard scanners.
This is the final NYC video. I hope you enjoyed this group of videos even though there were not that many videos. But either way, the Marriott Marquis was a great way to finish NYC content for this trip

I love watching your videos! I am going there in November and it helps a lot thank you!

[@TheChosenDarkness87299]

i see, these schindler miconic 10 elevators have changed... kinda surprises me

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Not to me whatsoever. The Miconics were in dire need to be fixed

[@TSNY18-Animations]

Happy CINCO DE MAYO to the Marriott Marquis & Suites.

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

This hotel doesn’t really have “suites” like Fairfields or Courtyards. The suites they have here are morelike full unit suites. Plus, the hotels full name is the New York Marriott Marquis. But i guess you can call it a suites hotel as the rooms are larger than your average NYC hotel

[@747sooner]

I have an idea for you if all guest floors get locked out by key card readers from floors 1-8: Try going up to the 48th floor (The View Restaurant) from the 3rd floor. See if that works. Cars F (High-rise) and G (Low-rise) are the only cars that take you to the restaurant.

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Won’t be returning anytime soon. But that only works if its open. If its closed, it wont let you enter anything

[@reececollison5101]

1:39 and 1:48 there is no way I could sleep in those rooms along the bottom rows, knowing there’s a massive empty void underneath it😂😂

Rip Miconic 10's

[@AdriaticTokoru]

11:46 Welp... F

[@user-bi3sc6sr4j]

Because it made to many people complain

[@bernardtheaubreycoxandcoolgame]

Wee! Like an amusement park ride

[@dmvelevators]

Wow. I am surprised that this hotel was not busy and I am surprised that these elevators weren’t busy

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Yeah. That’s why I filmed them at 7 in the morning

[@dmvelevators]

@@bostonelevatorsaviation That was very smart :)

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

@@dmvelevatorsfor sure. I wish they didn’t lock these off

[@elevatingaroundtown]

@@bostonelevatorsaviationI have seen these. I wish they were still original

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

@@elevatingaroundtown We all do. However these were not working the best premod.

[@elevatingCLE]

Car D & G have their cabinets opened from videos when they were Miconic 10 elevators

[@TSNY18-Animations]

Good job on the mod. But it looks exactly the same to me as when I was there.

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

You came just a few weeks after me i think. This was filmed on 2/19/2023

[@TSNY18-Animations]

@@bostonelevatorsaviation I saw the date

[@cthomas1864]

Are their any miconic panels?

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Those were temporary. They're gone now

[@Rafeg550youtube]

Chime Elevator? ‏‪3:04‬‏

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

Not exactly. It was the car chime, not the directional chime

[@matthewlindstrom8728]

Will you film the Atlanta Marriott

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

That's a bit of a tossup. First of all, Atlanta is a place I really want to go. However, I don't really want to go there right now.

[@AlexanderStehly]

When you do handicap mode your supposed to press again when you hear your destination, not scrolling down

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

That is one option, but you can also scroll down.

[@AlexanderStehly]

Oh

[@megakarlachofficial]

@@AlexanderStehly You can actually scroll down, but it would eventually auto scroll back to the top again if you don't do fast enough.

Low Rise elevators can’t serve 45.

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

These are the high rise. Low Rise goes to 27

[@user-bi3sc6sr4j]

Port is better

[@bostonelevatorsaviation]

This is PORT
