TEI Group shared details with ELEVATOR WORLD about the vertical-transportation (VT) system serving the nearly complete The Cortland, a 26-story condominium building at 555 West 22nd Street in West Chelsea, Manhattan. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects with SLCE as the architect of record and developed by Related Cos., the 141-unit property has six traction elevators. There are four 2500-lb passenger and two 3500-lb service elevators. All travel at up to 700 ft/min. With VDA serving as consultant, the job also includes one hydraulic 8000-lb automobile lift traveling at up to 100 ft/min. The traction elevators are powered by MCE iControllers and Torin machines, while the hydraulic unit utilizes a package from Mongrain Vertical Transport. TEI said it has worked on many projects with SLCE and VDA, and observed, “Related Management is running a wonderful project, right on schedule.”
