Old ARMOR Traction Service Elevator @ Cross County Shopping Center Office Building in Yonkers, NY


This is by far the nicest elevator in the mall. It is an almost completely original Armor, probably installed 1954 if the office building was built along with the mall, however, there is no record of when this building was built. While the passenger elevators had their fixtures and some other components replaced, this is almost completely original, with the exception of the door sensors. This has an EPIC-sounding motor, and you can clearly hear it and the relays when you are waiting for it on the top floor or leaving the top floor. This has the old Armor black buttons, and a older-looking, rather large cab, but a sign inside the cab says this only has a capacity of 2000 pounds, which is very hard to believe. This building is undergoing some construction, probably because of the mall renovation project, so I'm hoping that this and the other elevators stay the way they are when the construction is done. Also, another elevator filmer frequently visits this mall, yet he never went inside the office building. That's a shame, since I'm the first person to film this AWESOME elevator.
