| This building appears to be a former dealership. Does anyone know when it was built and what was here originally? [map] |
| Boyd Music Jacksonville, IL |
|
 |

| Boyd Music had occupied this building since 1953. I assume from the attached building with service bays that this was a car dealership originally. The building now houses BLH Computers. [map] |

| Garage Monticello, IL |
|
 |
 |
| This Garage was built in 1916. It may have housed a Ford dealership later on. It is now used for a variety of businesses. Winged wheels were a common design element used in garage designs. Another example is the Gutberlet Chevrolet building in McConnelsville, OH. [map] |

The Ford dealership in Nokomis housed McDavid Ford by the mid-1950s. I don't know what dealership was here originally. After McDavid, the building housed Heck Ford and Putnam-Wright Ford. It last housed Miles Ford. The building has been vacant since at least 2013. [map] |
