Huniolift not Schaefer

Huniolift fixtures not Schaefer Last modernization is from 2021

Those elevators were actually Installed in 1992

I wonder if this elevator has "hand mode" where you have to hold 31 for the elevator to go up or 1 to go down...

Hi Leo, can you send the link to the newly-moved Burlington??

0:07 This elevator's chime sound does sound like the Nordstrom wing passenger elevator.

Why is this elevator so dirty?

Nice - you managed to get to the upper level on the D Gates concourse! I noticed these last year but was downstairs (there’s an identical set directly underneath) but to go up here you had to pass an additional checkpoint depending on where you were flying. Also, there are 6x more in the A-Gates area (I have already uploaded these just around a month ago). 👍

KONE did an excellent job on that modernization!!

Wow old video! How old were u??

Very slow for traction motor..

From what I’ve heard they’ll still be here for the rest of 2024 and some/most of 2025!

yeah most of the older overslung gen2s are loud, but well-built. looks like the gen3 is overslung too, which is super nice, it'll be well built and smooth. new ones are virtually silent unlike the old ones

unfortunately you're never gonna see these types of hotels with 5500s, they're one of the more expensive MRLs on the market. which sucks, because the quality gap between 5500s and 3300s is insanely huge, but the 5500s are marketed as commercial and the 3300s really aren't. 7+ floors is when you start seeing better models

You should pay for the electricity you waste to make the videos!

Where does it say ElevateMe? I don't see any stickers.

I should go film those!

How do you know this elevator was built in 1995? Did you visited this in that year and you saw that they were building a new elevator next to the Nordstrom wing?

Why can't they renovated the mall just like Woodfield Mall?

Nice lifts! You would not see lifts like that in a Spanish Parking Garage for sure

Horrible mod. The KONEs where much better

The mod just made these worse than they were before

Shit mod

How dare they replace a 17 year old elevator?

One of my favorite elevator brands in Sweden

I filmed that today.

Wow

I like this mod. Definitely an improvement in my opinion.

I could totally see these getting a Schindler 6400 mod like Woodfield did

I remember are family went on opening day 1981 I was twelve years old i can't believe I remember. We mainly gone to fox valley Mall that's still open. St, Charles lost all are malls because of the Geneva Commons .

My cousin Lilly had her surgery at this place in January.

my favorites

epok

That’s my first gen 3 that I rode

Thanks for the final look. It has really changed a lot since I worked there back in 1986, at Montgomery Wards. It brings back many fun memories. So sad to see the end of what was once such a happy and exciting place. 😢

Otis did this?

Was this used to be a Monty G&P??

I filmed that on April 14.

3100? This seems to be a 5500 or at least 3300 XL

do these have intelligent leveling?

Another fast boi’s

Thanks for filming Stratford Square Mall for the last time before its closure this past Sunday, 4-21-24. I was really sad to see all these videos on the mall prior to its closure even as far back as 2020. I’ve been watching dead mall videos since end of last year. This mall had an emotional impact on me because I appreciate beautiful work of art like the architectural design of this mall. I love the aesthetics!! This is by far one of the most breathtaking, beautifully designed, aesthetically appealing malls I’ve ever seen on the internet. I’m not from the Chicago area but one does not need to be to appreciate beautiful work of art. The wood paneled ceilings, the glass skylights on the ceilings, wooden columns, the pillars resembling trees, mushroom like features on pillars, and the other beautiful wood work throughout the architecture. I’m hoping there is an active effort to try to preserve the architecture & aesthetics of the mall for the planned redevelopment. I’m praying that they can save the architecture for historical & architectural significance. Why not revitalize the mall rather than demolish it? It can be repurposed like some other dead malls. These malls ended up with successful outcomes like turning the malls into community colleges, community centers, a mini community inside the building. A museum for storing local art work from the Chicago area, a theater for fine arts, medical offices, commercial offices, retail, restaurants, indoor park & recreation such as indoor pools, ice skating rinks, gyms, a bank, an events center. Could even try to bring back the Century Theater, Round 1, add a day care center, a library. People can come up with visionary ideas to try to revitalize this mall instead of demolishing it. To demolish it would be a disservice to Stratford Square Mall and the community. Stratford Square Mall deserves better. The community deserves better than to take away the little bit of history they have. This mall served the community in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s in its better days. Why give up on it? I’m a bit relieved that there is an active effort to save Stratford Square Mall on Facebook. It’s open to the public to see. Thank you for preserving a part of history at a time when most of us who lived through the 80s, 90s, early 2000s have cherished these memories of hanging out at the malls. Thank you, You are doing a service to you community. I said enough.

Cool commercial!!! 🤗🚗❤️ Nice thatvthey used it to film car ad. But then again it would be nice if that mall was open too. Just so sad seeing all.of these malls that we all have found memories of all close up now. ☹️☹️☹️

Wow!!! Great video!!! I love this elevator think.this is so fabulous. I never seen an elevator like this before!!! 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️

Great video!!! 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️ I don't remember when I lived in Elgin, Illinois if I ever drove down this this mall to visit it. Since I'm in Rockford, Illinois I couldn't get to see this last days/day of this mall because of car problems and my husband's change of is schedule of him working 4 days of the week from 7:00pm to 7:00am but it's so sad to know another well known mall in my home state of Illinois is closing up just so sad. ☹️☹️☹️

motor aint bad

This elevator is actually a freight elevator, not a service elevator.
