STUNNING and GLASS Schindler 5500 Traction MRL elevator @ The Ben Hotel - West Palm Beach, FL

[Recorded: 12/29/21]
This elevator is definitely one of the best elevators in WPB. It's fast, offers an AMAZING view, and is just really fun to ride on. This is a retake of this elevator, as I lost my old video of this amazing thing. Sadly, this elevator does have a lot of creaks, and the buttons are kind of cheap, but I think the cab and view make up for it. Also, sorry for not getting a good view on the top floor and not getting multiple views outside the elevator doors’ window while going down.

From 4:14 - 5:17 there is no sound because of copyright issues.

I also want to thank @suejoshappy for first finding this elevator!

That leveling is so smooth it’s insane

Huh, I thought most 5500s do pre-start. If so a bit strange how this 1 doesn't. And 5500 uses Miconic MX-GC or something like that. Definitely not TX.

But it's 321A day my friend?! jk, this thing is awesome!

Schindler has been installing some really nice elevators lately

1:15 those are access hatches so if someone gets stuck, they can get the people out.

You've found some treasure 🪙🪙🪙 It's like a 8 story bar elevator for a nightclub, but no enforcements...
