Wonderful 1991 OTIS Series 1 Hydraulic Elevator | Orange Garage | Oakbrook Center | Oak Brook, IL

Recorded 11/4/2025 at 3:41 PM CST

It's been a long time since I got a video of these elevators, the left car has been broken for well over a year now and basically abandoned. This right car isn't doing too well either, it's been making very questionable scraping noises for a while now, and I won't be surprised if this one also breaks and never gets fixed, just like the other one. I personally think these or the red garage should be the next to get modded. Also if you were wondering, no, these haven't changed a bit since this video was taken.
