Video Recorded on June 23, 2023: Before I get on with this video, there's an important announcement I need to make. In case anyone asks if I filmed in certain places Julien (‪@FloridianElevators‬) and others have filmed, the answer is no because we were on our way to New York City when we stopped here for the night, and I literally had a half day here in town (we were stuck in traffic for almost the entire day), so I didn't get to see much at all (such as the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Smithsonian Center, downtown, none). Yes, I know it's strange, but that is what's best for the time I've had.
Anyways, speaking of Julien (‪@FloridianElevators‬), he actually came to and visit DC couple months ago, and then a month later, I'd happened to be in town! Not to mention, today is also Julien's birthday, so I can't even think of the absolute best way to surprise him on his birthday than a visit to this famous destination on my own for the very first time after him! SO GLAD I finally did!!! :D You know, similarly like the Marriott Marquis. From all the past videos, I for a while thought that these were Miconic 10 (like 94% of the time) until I was told these were actually ID. To be honest, it's really hard to tell which one is MIconic 10 or ID (like the Westin Oaks in the Galleria Mall in Houston, TX for example), but these are definitely worth checking out and by far my absolute most favorite in the DC Metro area! Especially with the flashing hall lanterns. I've WANTED to see something like that SO BADLY, and I FINALLY DID!!!! :D Speaking of the flashing hall lanterns, they act exactly like the Miconic 10. Unlike several known enthusiasts, I'm probably the only person in the while entire community that has never been on a Miconic 10 at all. Based on the flashing lights on the hall lanterns, I think they act similarly good enough to be a Miconic 10 if you ask me..LOL. I'm sure many enthusiasts used to have the "A" term few years back, and rightfully enough, I got Car A! That being said, I hope you enjoy this videos and a VERY WELL Happy Birthday wish goes out to Julien!!! If you are seeing this, Julien (‪@FloridianElevators‬), I hope you have an awesome birthday and wish you well! Installed in 1984, modernized in the early 2010's.

These are very fun elevators! Glad you got to ride them! And regarding your description, I remember for quite a while from 2016 to about 2018 you'd end up visiting places i went to a few weeks or months after I'd go there. Nice to see that trend is alive and well again! Haha. Anyway, great video and thanks again for the birthday wishes man!

@AshtonTheRailroadGuy Год назад

I remember Dieselducy filming those elevators years ago.

@AutobusCZ-mj5rt 7 месяцев назад

Me too.

@NeilPrasad_1905 Год назад

You went there too?! Amazing!

@blindsportslover 11 месяцев назад

I was in New Orleans last year at the Marriott with the same system. Bogged at times with stops on floors that nobody needed to be at (I got impatient with the system at some points), but it was very fun to use. Looking at other versions of this, it seems like they got rid of the system in favor of listing floors with only one button. For a blind person like myself, that was a bad idea. However, it was really great to find another way of using elevators.

@matthewphelan9288 Год назад

your gift of filming elevators is the best thing god gave you

@elevatingCLE Год назад

A lot like the Westin Oaks Hotel elevators but with a more familiar voice on every aspect and a retro looking screen just like the Marriott Marquis in NYC, and yes I can see why you got confused on the beginning. If you watched Suzzex’s video on these recently, he did a full overview of every chime from every car in handicap mode, also whats with “A as for Aggies”? This aint an Otis Compass 😂😂😂😂

@blindsportslover 11 месяцев назад

Have you got a link to that video? I heard on another video that for handicap mode, it is a helpful guide.

@dmvelevators Год назад

These elevators are my favorite in DC

@dmvelevators Год назад

And I love riding these elevators. I wanna stay there one day and maybe do a full tour of the Hotel one day. I hope these elevators don’t get modded to port anytime soon or modded anytime soon. I would be disappointed to see these elevators go because they are the first in DC

@SpaceboyYT 10 месяцев назад

I’ve rode & recorded these before! Nice video!

@AhmearClayIombo-dj6di 4 месяца назад

Awesome Elevator

@behtrm Год назад

I have always wanted to ride these, along with the Miconic 10s (which have since been modded) at Marriott Marquis NYC. I really need to make a trip to the east coast someday

@elevatorsincity Год назад

I'm glad you got Car E because the chime is cute better than the other Cars.

@DieselDucy 11 месяцев назад

Schindler ID is their access control. Miconic 10 is their controller.

I love this elevator.

1:00 car b is so funny

@blindsportslover 10 месяцев назад

The vocal car indicator in New Orleans only had that announcing once.

@HaileyJohn12 Год назад

I did read the description and that really sucks that you were stuck in traffic for almost the whole day. Definitely not pleasant.

@StormC9101 Год назад

I wonder if they’ll ever upgrade these to Schindler PORT like they did the NYC Marriott Marquis

@dmvelevators Год назад

Honestly I kinda hope not. Because imagine if they keycard these elevators if they get modded to port

@megakarlachofficial 7 месяцев назад

@@dmvelevators Even if they are modded to PORT, keycarding those elevators depends on the hotel staff or manager, whether they enabled it or not. NYC Marriott Marquis somewhat needed it just to prevent people from accessing floor 49 for example (which can be previously easily accessed once you use the keypads from specific floor and press 55 on it, which was much harder to nearly impossible to do it nowadays, according to some comments). Also if the M10 systems are working fine, they probably don't need to upgrade to PORT, unless something goes wrong like in NYC MM, which the old M10 systems suffered from bugs and glitches.

@dmvelevators 27 дней назад

@@megakarlachofficialgood point. The Marriott Marquis in NYC needed it pretty bad because of the bugs and glitches

@leo421loveselevators Год назад

What’s really interesting is that the miconic 10 in handicap mode they all have a different chime. My favorite is car C. Do you have a favorite?

@blindsportslover 8 месяцев назад

When I was in New Orleans, if you were in the lobby of the Marriott, chances are you probably got the American voice on the control panel. But when I was on 32 of the river tower, I got the British voice when entering my elevator destination.

@JimLiElevators 8 месяцев назад

I'd love to see that, but I won't be going to New Orleans at all honestly.

@blindsportslover 8 месяцев назад

@@JimLiElevators it was really cool. And I think there were some ushers in the lobby that announced the floors when checking the control panels. It was like somebody was reading the lottery.

@Sagamorerye 11 месяцев назад

Have you gone to the Watergate hotel? It may not be the most famous in the elevator community, but it is a landmark in US presidential history

@dmvelevators 11 месяцев назад

I have been there. I did tour of the Hotel and rode the elevators a few years ago

@ishanjani9885 8 месяцев назад

I believe dieselducy filmed this one seems like cab look has changed

@HaileyJohn12 Год назад

Though I may be wrong, but I believe these are Miconic 10 because they have the voice announcements on the elevator lanterns in handicap mode. Schindler ID doesn't have that. These are very famous regardless.

@FloridianElevators Год назад

Where did you hear this? My understanding was that it was the Keypad as well as the Controller that set the 2 systems apart.

@JimLiElevators Год назад

And based on the actions of how these lanterns blink, they seem to act like the Miconic 10, but that is just a thought and not 100% for real if it is or not.

@HaileyJohn12 Год назад

@@FloridianElevators I'm not exactly confident on this. Schindler id doesn't have that many voice announcements as miconic 10. From looking at other videos of miconic 10s and IDs.

@DieselDucy 11 месяцев назад

@@FloridianElevatorsSchindler ID is simply their access control. It is not a controller. Miconic 10 is the controller.
