The 17-story CityCenter 735 building, located in the heart of downtown Milwaukee, was built in 1913 along the Milwaukee River. Despite being well maintained, the structure’s aging elevator system had remained relatively unaltered. Learn how utilizing Quattro DC elevator drives in the building's elevator system allowed for the highest levels of functionality, safety, and comfort.
Installed in 1997, the original control system suffered various failures and was eventually decommissioned due to high costs for spare parts. Concept Elevators sought to replace the poorly functioning control system and chose to utilize Magnetek’s HPV 900AF drive as a more cost-effective, quality alternative.
The DC hoist motors for elevator operation were original to the building's 1929 construction, and the elevators themselves had not been updated for 30 years. The modernization included replacement of elevator platforms, buffers, door equipment, gearless machines, car controllers, and other mechanical components for improved operation.
