[otisfirelite219]

why did polaris close?

[musicfreakcc]

@otisfirelite219 Low sales after 9/11.

[otisfirelite219]

is polaris closed for good?

[gradygang]

the elevators kinda looks like the marriott marquis's elevators in downtown atlanta

[cannycart]

The cab looks a little like the Marriott Marquis and so does that beeep

[elevatorgolfer9]

why is floor 22 now locked? also do you have a video of the radius tower elevators at this hotel? i'll probably see them when i'm in atlanta this spring break

[stevethemeave45]

I like the screen that shows where the elevator's at.

[Biglele208]

what, above the doors?

[maalit72]

How many of elevators served level "PH"?

[musicfreakcc]

Only 2 - PH is the location of the Polaris Restaurant, which is currently closed.

[maalit72]

"Elevator 1" and "Elevator 5"?

[Biglele208]

how long will the floor be closed?

[maalit72]

what is the ground level? ML?,EL?,ballroom level? or the lobby?

[musicfreakcc]

Lobby is the Peachtree exit, EL has the Peachtree Center Exit, ML is the true ground floor, although you have to go up in order to get to the street from there.

[maalit72]

nice talking elevator.

what is on level "EL"?

[buddybuddy0920]

exhibit level

[slaidbackjon]

Why did they use Epco buttons on this one, instead of otis series 1 buttons? Is that board in the lobby called a lobby panel, what does it do compared to normal elevartors?

[liftdude]

why isnt the penthouse worki ng?

[musicfreakcc]

It's closed.

[elevatorgeek762]

Does this hotel have conventions frequently?

[musicfreakcc]

Yes

[Baytrail]

What is a motor lobby?

[musicfreakcc]

That's why we have Wikipedia - so I don't have to take time out of my day to explain simple things.

[dea41396]

wikipedia doesn't have a motor lobby article.

[musicfreakcc]

Then, write one. A Motor Lobby is where you pick up your valet car, usually.

[Baytrail]

For the international tower, one of the levels is the ballroom.

[tennisfreak2495]

oh and very tall cab.

[tennisfreak2495]

I like the outer design on theose elevators because it seems very modern and I am a big fan of modern elevators, equiptment,ect.

[musicfreakcc]

John Portman is well-known for his elevator designs. These were installed in 1967.

[aceee06]

How long is Polaris closed?

[musicfreakcc]

Indefinitely, for now.

[Baytrail]

I'm not sure if this is a good question but is Polaris being permanently shut down?

[musicfreakcc]

They are closed for good - they closed due to the decline in travel right after 9/11,

[dea41396]

are they ever going to put anything in it's place?

[Biglele208]

what you mean the 9/11 attacks

[aceee06]

Next time go to PH and then go to the lowest floor at the end.

[musicfreakcc]

SRY - PH will be blocked, until they reopen Polaris. :-(

[aceee06]

At the beginning elevator 4 is at the Lobby level but it won't open even though you called it.

[shadywood79]

yes but if you notice the arrow next to where it said "L" you'd notice it was already moving up and could not open

[shadywood79]

Look at the arrow indicating that it was already going up...while when the elevator is stationary theres no arrow like the one above it

[yuumyyum101010]

i don't like the voice in that elevator

[Biglele208]

How did you get to 22?

[musicfreakcc]

I have no idea! It never worked without a room key before.

[neuroth111111]

u mean retake

[Biglele208]

What does PH stand for?

[numbuh4heartstart]

Penthouse.

[musicfreakcc]

Actually, Polaris.

[patricknedz]

they should make all elevators scenic

[musicfreakcc]

That would be nice, but scenic elevators require a large sacrifice in floor space, hence the fact that they are only best for hotels.

[patricknedz]

and malls there is a scenic elevator at sears in the mall of robinson its an FX schindler

[dheaton5]

you spelled retake wrong on the title

[musicfreakcc]

I know - not enough room for the e

[patricknedz]

I hate when theres no more room in the titel but take out the - the there will be romm for the E

[Biglele208]

Cool!

[Biglele208]

I like the bank of elevators! Really strange

[neuroth111111]

creeking wouldent wana make me go on it

[Ih8escalators]

You listening Schindler, THAT is the kind of bell that should be on your elevators, not BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOP

[Baytrail]

Why is the penthouse locked? The Peabody Orlando in Florida locks the top 3 floors: 25, 26 and 27. By the way I can only film it if I go back to Florida.

[musicfreakcc]

The restaurant is closed.

[Ih8escalators]

Permanently?

[musicfreakcc]

Possibly.

[elevatorfan762]

The bank of floor indicators is loacted in what level?

[musicfreakcc]

The Motor Lobby - bottom floor
