Additional Information: | 2019: This Contemporary Commercial building, once serving as a car dealership and auto repair shop, was constructed in 1926. This one story, flat-roofed structure faces north, and features large bands of display windows, most of which have been partially or fully boarded over. Constructed of narrow painted brick, the area above the windows and entryways appears to have been constructed of larger stone blocks, separated by narrow bands of brick. The large circular tower that held signage for the business near the northwest corner of the building has been removed since the time of the last survey. To be demolished in 2020. 2021: No longer extant. |
