2019: This one-story automobile service station was built c.1950. It has an irregular plan with concrete-block walls and a flat roof. Fenestration includes 12-light fixed metal windows, one-over-one fixed metal windows, and two-light sliding metal windows. The front (south) facade has two overhead garage bays and an original storefront window that wraps around the corner to the side (east) elevation. The rear (north) portion of the building has a garage bay and a wide eave overhang along the east elevation. A scored concrete panel projects from the east elevation, separating the southern and northern portions of the building.
