Atrium and Elevators at the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta

[Hanssen69]

Holy shit that was amazing.  Amazing is an understatement. Mind blowing is what it is. So are those catwalks on some of the floors? Ray is correct in his statement.

@MrElevator99 prob not even related to the elevators...

[babazad3h]

at the bottom floor is there anything covering the elevator shaft ??

[DASGLion]

The shaft ends only a few feet below the loby level. But its surrounded by a set of fountains

[Biglele208]

How do you know which elevator goes to where?

[musicfreakcc]

There are big signs that tell which floors the elevator serves.

[nwest1140]

And the numbers tells you which floor the elevator is in.

[patricknedz]

elevators city I would call that cant wait to go there

Ray Bradbury is right! He was a Guest of Honor there for WorldCon 1986. I was thrilled to be in the Hilton rather than here! Those elevators... Many of us Sci-fi fans said the Marriott didn't look real. Watching the elevators going up they seemed to be CGI after about the 30th floor.

[musicfreakcc]

Haha - that building, even today, is still out of this world.

[JasperHorace718]

Are levels 42-47 penthouse suites?

[musicfreakcc]

Those are "Concierge Rooms", which consist of normal rooms and suites with upgraded amenities, including a private lounge and better elevator service.

that's actually one of my favorite buildings in the world excluding the Burj al Arab in Dubai, UAE which was spectacular! and of course we only stayed there for two nights because their cheepest room is 2000 dollars!

[musicfreakcc]

Really? Their service, I heard, is legendary.

[patricknedz]

that is neat to look at the atrium since its 47 storys it will be fun to look down from the top

[musicfreakcc]

It's actually 50 floors.

[patricknedz]

wow is it th tallest atruim in the world?

[musicfreakcc]

It was, until the Burj Al-Arab was built in Dubai. There are disputes as to which atrium is the largest - the Marriott of the Luxor.

[Baytrail]

I think they need the newer buttons and the indicator used in the Otis Luxury Car Fixture lineup.

[Baytrail]

Have you been to the Marriott Marquis in New York City?

[musicfreakcc]

I went about a year ago. The one in Atlanta is much cooler, due to the curvature of the building.
