FRESH MOD: OTIS HydroFit MOD Prime (fmr. General) Hydraulic Elevators | 830 Post Rd E | Westport, CT

This is a heartbreaking loss. We came here expecting these to still be original and discovered that OTIS MURDERED THEM!!! These used to have rare GAL white square fixtures on them, which were some of the only ones left in the state of Connecticut. The last known General with white square GAL is at 49-51 Locust Ave in New Canaan, which is currently endangered. Don't get me wrong, this is an amazing mod job, but it was just done to the wrong elevators. These also had their power units replaced by OTIS a while back because the units haven't been changed since this modernization.
