This former Cities Service station must have been built around 1930. The twin glass structures were used for displaying products. Around 2015, the building was repainted in the original color scheme of black and white. The roof was painted black. The tiles were originally painted a checkerboard black and white pattern. This building is now vacant. I believe the only other surviving example of these buildings is in Correctionville, IA. This vintage photo shows a different design in Toronto, ON. [map]
