Lake Geneva Auto Station
View across street towards a convertible automobile with a fender-mounted spare tire parked in front of the Lake Geneva Auto Station on the south side of the 800 block of Main Street. The car is towing a racing yacht on a trailer. There is a man standing at the rear of the car. Another car is parked near the station's gas pumps. A "Garage" sign in the shape of an automobile hangs over the sidewalk. The 1908 YMCA building at the corner of Main Street and Wrigley Drive is seen in the background; a YMCA sign hangs above the side entrance. The brick building has several large chimneys. |
