Mini elevaTOUR: Tour of 2 Historic OTIS Elevators 70 Woodfin Asheville NC

(5-2022) This is one of the most famous elevators on my channel. I have not been here in many years and I figured I needed to check up on these. Today we will see them in stunning 4K60. Both of them are running fantastic and the gated one seems to have been quieted down some. Enjoy as we check out both elevators from May 2022!
70 Woodfin is also known as The Park Place Office Building is a historic 4-story brick building that was formerly Memorial Mission Hospital. It is a multi tenant office building with space available. if you are in Asheville NC and are interested in space in this amazing building a link is below.

    That newer 50's Otis gives me some nostalgia. I used to go to my mom's old workplace a lot when I was a little kid. It had this old Otis elevator we used to ride on to get to her office. It was old, she said it was from 1944, so WWII era. It even had a rotary phone in it. The noise of the door opening, closing and latching was _identical_ sounding to this. The only difference is it was single door not a double door, and it also had a little window on the door which was neat. Watching this brought back some nice childhood memories. That elevator was modernized a few years ago, and it doesn't have that charm anymore. Seriously the stuff they made back then was superior to what they make now.

    Yeah automatic gates are better than manual. For automatic gates, you obviously don't close the gate because it's spring loaded and it's connected to the door operator so when you push the button then the gate will close by itself. When the elevator arrives at the floor you chose then the gate opens by itself
