Additional Information:2015- concrete block with a painted concrete skim coat and rests on a concrete slab foundation. A stepped parapet is located on the front (north) and side (east) facades. The building is rectangular with a rounded corner on the front facade facing the intersection. The original storefront windows have been infilled and downsized with plywood and modern one-over-one and fixed pane windows, and the main entrance has been replaced with a modern door with a transom. Three original garage door openings are located on the front facade and appear to have the original wood panel doors. An additional original door opening on the side (east) elevation remains with a replaced door. Windows on the west side have been infilled with concrete block. The original sign and pumps have been removed.
