Awesome ThyssenKrupp Traction Parking Elevators at One Wachovia Center Charlotte

Riding the really nice and modern parking garage elevator at the famous One Wachovia Center in Charlotte, NC. The main elevators are ThyssenKrupp Destination Dispatch, one of the very few in the United States. Unfortunately, you have to have a badge to ride them. The parking elevators have unique ThyssenKrupp fixtures and also have a very cool floor indicator. This is truly a ThyssenKrupp beauty.

What is the color coding?

F/red , H/green.

[escalatorgeek881]

I don't know.

[ethan2226]

2 and 3 Wachovia Center also have ThyssenKrupp Destination Dispatch as well.

@escalatorgeek881: Extremely nice take of the blue LED ThyssenKrupp, but you cannot access the main tower as it has turnstiles. :(

[suzzex]

Those look like they were modernized, probably original Dover. ThyssenKrupp was not a company in 1988.

[elevatorsonly]

Wow! A custom version of Signa4!

[revo8778]

Wow! That is the nicest TK I've seen yet!

[escalatorgeek881]

Floors A, B, and C are above ground, and D, E, F, G, and H are underground. The lettering doesn't make sense, because C is the lobby level, B is something I don't know, and A is the mezzanine level and Overstreet Mall.

[elevatorgeek762]

Which floors are overground and which are underground?

[elevatorsonly]

No, MM (Marriott Marquis) NYC and BOA (Bank of America) Plaza in Ft. Lauderdale florida is SCHINDLER MICONIC 10! I've only been to MM in NYC

[JonElevator]

No, the Marriott Marquis in New York City has destination dispatch and thats open access and the Bank of America Plaza Ft. Lauderdale is as well. But other offoce buildings, the answer is probably.

I personally like the BUZZ the best
