One of the oldest commercial buildings in Asheville (1895), it’s an example of Romanesque Revival architecture. I’ve always enjoyed calling it the Dr. Humor building, although to be accurate its pronounced “drummer”. On the corner of Patton & Church Streets, next to the S&W cafeteria building. Part of the Asheville Urban Trail, stop #5 calls attention to the frieze work.
