(February 2023) Here are two insanely HIGH hydraulic elevators at the Drury Inn & Suites St. Louis Southwest in Valley Park, MO. One of these elevators is glass and the other one is in the middle of the hotel. Both of these elevators have series 1 buttons.

I’m shocked and surprised that these Otis elevators are not traction! 7 floors, not traction, are you kidding me?!?!

I've been on an 8 floor hydraulic before. I was surprised those weren't traction.

That piston goes at least 70 ft. underground .. quite a high-draulic!

I like that quote before we ride that elevator we have another elevator I wish that it was every building with a glass elevator that did that

This might be the exact hotel I stayed at a long time ago. These were the first Otis Series 1 elevators I have ever ridden.

Nice elevators, but traction would be ideal. Not sure if there is a design element preventing overhead machine rooms (I don't know much about the Drury brand.).

There is an eight story tall hydraulic elevator here in SA @ a janky-dingy Hilton hotel off the I-10. Not sure of its maker, but there are at least two of ‘em inside the raggedy hotel!

@brianmoody9557 Жыл бұрын

Seems like they could add a second elevator in the atrium if traffic needs dictated it.

@stlelevators Жыл бұрын

It could probably be done, but there are already 2 elevators.

Hydraulic elevators are much more common in newer buildings in my city than the traction ones. It's probably because of how much cheaper they are. And many buildings which have 7 floors (including mine) also have hydraulic elevators. I mean I'm living in Europe, surely the "standards" are different in the US, but I just wanted to let you know that it's not that uncommon here :)

As impressive as the height/depth of the jack is, it all seems out of place with the architectural lines showing suspension... It's as if the whole building is hanging top-down (very cool by the way) and the elevators should be too. They're nice though... just odd for this particular bldg.
