I had no idea about this elevator's existence until I marked this building and checked this place out. Even back tracking after finding it shows weird stuff on the records not leading to it being known as a US Elevator install and instead just a weird acronym.

But yeah, I finally found one of the few "Hidden Elevators of Asheville" and this one is a US Soft Touch! Besides a few weird button replacements, most of the original buttons remain in tact and this thing runs great too unlike the past few I've seen! Definitely worth checking out!
