AWESOME 1971 Dover Hydraulic Elevators at the Former Alba Waldensian Corp Office (Valdese, NC)

DISCLAIMER: Although this location I have disclosed, I would not suggest coming here unless you have some backup. Not saying you are going to get kidnapped and be sent to the Backrooms, but this place is super unnerving.

A little interesting bit about this building. This was built as the Former Alba Waldensian Corporate Office building in 1971, and probably just became a simple office building decades ago. Over 75% of this building is basically abandoned at this point and the layout and designs are just super unsettling. 50% of this building looks like it want's to be an Basic Office Building, while the other 50% wants to be some abandoned School hallway with colorful lockers.

Back to the video now, we have 2 Awesome Extremely Rare Dovers with the 50's/60's Logo with CJ Anderson HNS Buttons! Finding a Dover with CJ Anderson Fixtures is super rare! The left cab runs slow and takes a bit to level, and also makes strange noises when trying to level the first time (I assume these are rarely used to begin with), while the right one seems to run faster and better, with faster leveling too. Definitely an awesome set of elevators in probably one of the most unsettling buildings I have stepped into.
