What to expect in Atlantic City

In Atlantic City, my hopes are to film THREE GOOD LIFTS at the Tropicana hotel AT MINIMUM! This means I will hopefully revisit the Montgomery lift in the casino, the Haughton / Schindler lifts in the north tower & the KONE / Montgomery lifts in the west tower. Do not expect any lift videos from any other hotels besides the Tropicana hotel. Any other lifts I get the opportunity to film in Atlantic City will be bonus surprise lift videos. There may be a chance that I could walk over to some of the other lower-rising buildings along the boardwalk at anytime during my trip to Atlantic City to film some interesting hydraulic or other MRL traction lifts. I am just excited for the Tropicana lifts.

Additionally, other lift videos from Clinton Township will be up as opening lift videos for the big lift galore of the summer, which is going up on my YouTube Channel on August 12, at 8:45 AM. I will have no more plans to film lifts for the rest of the summer until AFTER September 8. After Atlantic City, I will begin the research project for my graduation trip & start discussing plans to film other lifts in Secaucus, Elizabeth, Clinton Township & Morristown. The Clinton Township lift videos are going up on my YouTube Channel the night BEFORE we go to Atlantic City.

Other than that, please do not hesitate to email me with questions or concerns at prosperouspenguins@gmail.com.

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...

Paramus Lift Galore: June 2022

Written on behalf of the Rising Salamander Academy Lift Galore Date: June 17 Lift Galore Time: 5:00 PM EST It's been a long time since I've last filmed lifts in person, a whole whopping half a year to be exact. I'm excited to be back, but not for long, since I have to finish up my time at Kean University & focus on graduating on time. But for the mean time, let's enjoy our summer recess, film the best lifts we can film & make the most of it! Westinghouse Lift Where: Macy's, Garden State Plaza Time Filmed: 10:10 AM (June 10) Grade: B+ Speed to Height Ratio: 8.1:1 (Fast) Landings Served: 3 The first lift of this lift galore is a 1950's Westinghouse lift which was later modernised by a generic company between the 1980's & early 2000's with EPCO Flushline fixtures on the outside, EPCO Circleline fixtures on the inside. This lift has a speed to height ratio of 8.1:1 which makes it fast for the application & number of landings. This lift is loc...
