TO BE DEMOLISHED! 1976 Dover Traditional Hydraulic Elevator at ASU Wey Hall (Boone, NC)

Welcome back to Appalachian State University, a college that is a huge ass city and generally impossible to film every elevator here without coming back multiple times. This is Round 2 of App State finds!

This was actually an elevator I was going to film the first spree, but the building was locked for some reason... I at least got it the 2nd time around. Good timing too, because apparently they are going to demolish this building soon (or already have). Before you ask, the restrooms had shit. Just new Asswall Millennium toilets and Zurn "urinals", just like most other bathrooms here on the campus.

While it has the Typical Traditionally Boring Style Panel, this elevator actually uses the Older Pushbutton Traditional Buttons! 3 has been replaced with an Adam's Survivor/D replacement, and honestly it looks kinda out of place. As for the rest of the Elevator, the COP looks kinda beaten up around the Indicator Part and this elevator runs very questionably. Still an interesting cab that isn't a 100% Traditionally Boring for once.
