QUICK RIDE: Vintage 50s Otis Black Button Traction Elevator at a Undisclosed Location, Orlando, FL

Filmed with Oregon Elevator Fan (Riley).

This is a pretty awesome epic elevator!!!!! It hasn't been maintained in years, yet it runs like new. Anyways, regarding what happened at the end, I have a story to tell you guys. First, I was requested to tell you guys, that if your an elevator enthusiast coming to Orlando, DO NOT FILM IN THIS BUILDING!!!! I didn't put the location in the title so this video didn't show up on google seach, but this is at the Petco Building on E. Colonial Drive in Orlando, mistakenly referred to as 2400 Concord St. Anyways, as you saw when I got up to 2, the building owner told me and Riley to leave and asked what me and Riley were doing with the cameras and in his building, and I told the guy that I was just doing a video of the elevator and that I love elevators and that he had a Antique Otis Elevator and how they are almost extinct in Florida, and he asked me if it was like a group or something as someone filmed here prior to me and Riley Filming here, and I said yes. Then he proceeded to tell me to tell all of you guys not to film in his building, And that he is worried about his elevator breaking down as he doesn't have the money to modernize this elevator (which is something Florida codes are a pain about), so he can't maintain this elevator, so therefore, he doesn't want anyone else but him and the tenants to use the elevator. Then I said alright, bye and that I would tell you guys not to film here, and he said Thank you. Overall, this guy was very polite in dealing with me, he owns this building and has every right to kick me out, and whatever you guys do, PLEASE DON'T FILM IN HIS BUILDING!!!!! It is private property. The Only reason I am uploading this is because I need to tell you all not to film here, plus the elevator is absolutely amazing and epic. Anyways, as for the elevator, it is truly amazing, has Otis Black Button Bakelite fixtures, has a nice traction motor, and is from the Early to Mid 1950's.

Installed: Early to Mid 1950's

The building owner probably had a big ego and didn't want you on their breaking out but I'm sure he was understanding I've not been busted yet but I know my days coming I'm not looking forward to being busted I would probably break down in tears right there because I don't like being told Trevor even if it's before the one I have vintage elevators probably wasn't supposed be used because the stupid Florida elevator codes
