Possible new additions to CCRS

After watching videos of lifts from many cities, towns & townships in Nevada, I have became overly fascinated by my findings. I paid attention to the smallest details in each video I watched. Here are my findings:

  • Broad variety of different models of lifts in Las Vegas
  • EPIC modern / vintage lifts in Reno
  • I have came to the conclusion that Las Vegas & Reno are deserving of high ranking spots on CCRS, including: Reno on #11 spot & Las Vegas on #10 spot.

I am still a little bit iffy on adding Tucson to the list because I haven’t watched too many of their lift videos, but if I am impressed with what I see in the videos, Tucson is going on as #12 on CCRS. Additionally, I expect to add a couple more cities in UPSTATE New York to CCRS by 9.1.18 Although New York City is the major reason why New York State may never end up on CCRS, I want to add a number of cities in New York with good lifts to CCRS. Additionally, I am thinking of adding some cities, towns & townships in South Carolina to CCRS in October 2018. These cities, towns & townships have lifts worthy of putting them on the list NEAR CHARLOTTE’S RANKING! New Criteria is in place for CCRS on 9.1.18 to allow NY to go on CCRS, including:

  • Single cities, towns & townships could be excluded from CCRS for any reason if their home state is directly on CCRS with an S ranking.
  • Any city in New York that is north west of NYC by a minimum 10 mile radius will be automatically qualified as a 7S+ ranking, while towns & townships will be qualified as a 7S- ranking.
  • New York City will never hold a placement on CCRS. This is the only city in the country not worthy of holding a placement on CCRS, because there are very little interesting lifts in the city to film & those lifts could be found mainly in 2 to 15-story buildings.
  • No matter how basic lifts are in Charlotte NC by LOOKS, Charlotte will always hold #1.
  • Every city & township in NJ automatically is qualified on CCRS & is ranked as 2S+ or 2S- until an exact placement on CCRS is found for that city, town or township based on lift criticism score on a basic lift in that city, town or township. To gain qualification for CCRS, a basic lift in that city, town or township must have a scoring of 9/15 or worst lift a minimum scoring of 5/15.
  • New York state will get a 7S ranking on CCRS. All cities, townships, boroughs & towns within a 10 mile radius of NYC EXCEPT FOR WHITE PLAINS & STATEN ISLAND will automatically get 7S+ or 7S- rankings.
  • Boroughs within a city, state, county, town or township will get a carrot symbol next to their ranking, or a 🥕 emoji.

As of December 15, this is how CCRS will look:

  1. Charlotte
  2. Asheville
  3. Raleigh
  4. Greenville
  5. Columbia
  6. Myrtle Beach
  7. Charleston
  8. Indianapolis
  9. Saint Louis
  10. Kansas City
  11. San Diego
  12. Irvine
  13. San Francisco
  14. Sacramento
  15. Los Angeles
  16. Las Vegas
  17. Reno
  18. Tucson
  19. Phoenix
  20. Houston
  21. Dallas
  22. Fort Worth
  23. San Antonio
  24. Austin
  25. Plano
  26. Frisco
  27. Arlington
  28. Lubbock
  29. Fort Lauderdale
  30. Miami
  31. Orlando
  32. Tampa
  33. Sarasota
  34. Atlanta
  35. Pittsburgh
  36. Scranton
  37. Milwaukee
  38. Chicago
  39. Hartford
  40. New Haven
  41. Stamford
  42. Boston
  43. White plains
  44. Albany
  45. Rochester
  46. Buffalo
  47. Atlantic City
  48. Secaucus
  49. Elizabeth
  50. Freehold
  51. Morristown

By December 15, I expect to have 51 cities, towns & townships on CCRS, 15 more than there are now. Each city, town & township has an average lift criticism score of between 8/15 & 11/15. Texas will move up to a 3S ranking on CCRS, while California will move down to a 5S ranking.

That’s all for now, get ready for the Atlantic City follow up verdict tomorrow!

Why Schindler & KONE make the best traction lifts

Over the past 2 & a half years of filming lifts at different buildings all over the Eastern Seaboard, I have managed to film a handful of OTIS, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp & KONE traction lifts. Here is my assumption: Schindler & KONE make the best traction & MRL traction lifts of any of the 4 major lift brands. Of course, this could be based on personal bias, but it doesn’t go without knowledge that Schindler lifts, are in fact, more efficient time-based than let’s say, ThyssenKrupp lifts. Here are some things that I really love about Schindler & KONE traction lifts. Their fast acceleration / leveling It is no surprise that Schindler & KONE have some of the fastest average accelerating rates of any major lift brand. This is because Schindler & KONE have a perfect reference-tackle system, which is almost unbeatable by standards of other lift brands. One thing I have noticed when riding Schindler lifts is even at low speeds (200-400 FPM), you head feels like...

A QUICK ANALYSIS OF EACH OF THE LIFTS AT BRIDGEWATER MALL IN BRIDGEWATER TOWNSHIP

I do not have much time to elaborate on every single detail of the lifts at the Bridgewater Mall in Bridgewater Township, so I will try to narrow down my analyses as quick as possible. I have no time to include pictures as visuals either, so you’ll just have to refer to the attached YouTube video below. The Mall itself Bridgewater Commons Mall is a mall from the early 1980’s that has gone through quite a few renovations and expansions over the years. Inside the mall, the original anchors are Macy’s and Bloomingdales, which both have Westinghouse lifts, still fully original to the 1980’s construction project. The carpark was added in during the 1990’s and features the first lift I filmed which was the Dover glass hydraulic. Inside the mall, there is a food court on the third floor with three sets of escalators throughout the main part of the mall, with three more sets inside the multi-level stores (Bloomingdales, Macy’s, and Lord & Taylor). The majority of the escalators are Schin...
