Innovation slapped ??? hydraulic elevator at 701 West Broad St in Falls Church VA 

(📹 12/19/2023) Here is a slapped on elevator at 701 West Broad Street in Falls Church VA. I have no clue who manufactured this because of the stupid slap on. Interesting how they went with round hall buttons, but square car buttons. First time I've seen square Universal buttons standalone on a COP (meaning it's not Decorator). The moving pads drive me nuts and I wish they took them down unless needed because it has an awesome wooden cab. The elevator's interior and the position indicator kinda make the old Cotton elevator at The Frederick in Huntington WV its sister elevator.
