AmericanLifts - Invidious

AmericanLifts

You guessed it: this channel is about elevators! I go to the most obscure places in search of vertical transportation relics. Everything from old elevators to new elevators, some recently installed, others more than 100 years old! The new elevators tend to stay in the backlog for a while, because old elevators are the most interesting, so I keep them a priority over the newer ones. A new one may show up, usually because it is part of a series (like the New Mexico trip uploads) or because it is architecturally pleasing (such as an elevator constructed almost entirely of glass).
