All 4 Otis Gen 2 Elevators at Carilion Riverside Parking Garage Roanoke, VA
(January 2024) These elevators are definitely standing the test of time. They still run incredible even in 2024. Enjoy as we ride all 4 elevators here and walk the steps for a roof top view. It is SO interesting going back and watching older videos of these and seeing how the view has changed out the window. Does anyone remember being on the live stream when I filmed this?

Don't know why I skipped this place when I was in Roanoke, but knowing me, I will definitely be back here to film these elevators (and Elmwood)!

These run very well! Very glad you were able to return to this parking garage! I watched your old videos of these elevators, but now that it’s 2024, those still run absolutely fantastic!!! They also level very nicely and quickly! Really love the GEN2 voice! Hope these elevators continue to live on!

When I clicked on the video, I saw something that you don't see every day. An Otis commercial! We all know that ads can be annoying, but that one was actually kind of interesting to watch. I figured that was interesting to share.

Always liked the Gen2s with the Series 5 over the newer ones with the "Series 7" fixtures. Seems like ones with the latter don't always hold up well compared to the former

Otis Gen2s with the older fixtures (Series 4/5 or whatever) are some of the best MRL traction systems out there compared to Otis cutting corners with the newer stuff
