Yeah I was there 2 years ago and I believe the elevators expired the day we were leaving. I don't know if they're different ones from the ones that are there now, but they certainly have to update them. Still love the hotel, though.
It might be lost, I am not sure, I will look for it. They are OTIS Traction Elevators with the Black Halo Buttons. 1 bank serves L, 2-11, and the other bank serves L, 2, 11-22. They often stall between floors, and they brake once a day during the summer. They are from 1975, and are in bad need of an Overhaul, as are many buildings in Ocean City. For Example, My Grandma has a Condo a few blocks down from the carousel, it's on the 20th floor of a 21 floor building, OTIS from 1977, and they're fine
Thanks for posting. I go here ever year.

I did, I just didn't reupload it after I closed my account. Did they modernize them, or are they still crappy?

I've never seen that Otis model have an indicator on the outside, or have a glass shaft.
Only 75 FPM? I thought it looked faster.
Also, what's DTR?

That has Otis fixtures from the 1980's.
