Dating back to approximately 1928, 12 Brevard has worn many hats over the past century. From an automotive repair garage and hosiery manufacturing facility to Petroleum Pump and Tank Company and longtime occupant Asheville Powertrain, the building has evolved alongside Asheville’s changing commercial landscape.
And then there’s the local lore. According to a story passed down by a former occupant, the garage once served as a stop for moonshine runners who reportedly had their cars repainted to avoid recognition by law enforcement.
Over the decades, the building itself has changed shape, with additions and modifications reflecting its many uses. Today, another chapter in its history is taking shape.
