Is the elevator cab design going to stay the same?

[dea41396returns]

@NHB2010 IDK. Why don't you call JCPenney and ask them... There phone number is (516) - 877 - 1100

How were you able to access the escalator while this store was being renovated?

[dea41396returns]

@KyFriedPlatypus the corridor leads to the mens department

Now a KONE Hydraulic Elevator (hydraulic system probably from TK)

[dea41396returns]

Actually 4 new KONE hydros (3 Passenger, 1 Freight)

Motion Elevator is providing the hydraulics.

Good Riddance to the other elevator, by the way.

[dea41396returns]

right on!

That is not the original panel. It was added c.1985

[dea41396returns]

SCOTT said it was the ORIGINAL panel

[KyFriedPlatypus]

Also where's the call button on B?

[dea41396returns]

same place as it was b4

[KyFriedPlatypus]

The angle I saw it from on the video got me confused that the button was removed.

[KyFriedPlatypus]

The Basement/ Lower Level looks eerie, almost like the corridor people would go through as they evacuate a Disney world ride.

[dea41396returns]

if you see my older videos, you can see the former optical/picture etc studio/department that was down there and now the store is undergoing a major overhaul (they're basically rebuilding the store) including elevator replacements so that's why it looks like that... Very CREEPY corridor, but I am sure filechia likes it...

[ihatethetkbuzz]

you should've got the employee elevator. they were nice to lielevators and revo8778 when they filmed it

[dea41396returns]

it was acting up on employees (they were ringing the alarm constantly), it was low on oil, and there were too many employees using it. Both elevators are completely identical...

[revo8778]

Actually, when I filmed it I didn't even encounter anyone.

[KONEelevatorman111]

I thought they were modernizing the older elevators?

[dea41396returns]

they are, but not until the smaller dover in the front of the store is done because they want to maintain at least 1 elevator in service...
