| Additional Information: | The building is rectangular in plan with a concrete block foundation, vertical board siding, and corrugated metal gable and shed roofs. Length-wise, the building stands perpendicular to 7th St./E. Geneva St. The front (west) elevation faces this street and is symmetrical in plan with a large central vehicular doorway (mirrored by the rear doorway, creating a drive-through). The facade is dominated by a wide 3-level parapet that is capped by a small gable. This gable is the end of a clerestory that runs the length of the building's roofline. Sliding vertical plank doors are located at intervals on the north and south sides of the building. |
