Before & after: R.I.P. 1986 KONE M hydraulic scenic elevator @ Hansa shopping center, Turku FIN

This video is about the elevator that used to be my favourite elevator from my childhood, which has sadly been demolished in 2018. I can still remember the times when it was completely original, before the update in around 2005. It had original door motor and bumpers, green M buttons and green 7-segment display, original KONE M chime and an EPIC original motor. Before the renovation of the Hansatori part of the shopping center, most of the interior was still original from the 1980's, especially the details of the lamps. I'm going to miss those all.

Today, the shopping center has changed and the scenic elevator is gone. The new elevator is nice, but in that section of the shopping center, there's a lot of traffic. And I don't understand why they couldn't install a second one next to it.
