Significance |
|
Built in 1924, this was one of many auto-related businesses that took advantage of Belltown's proximity to downtown and lower land prices. In 1937 it housed the Automotive Service Company, which specialized in selling and servicing Willard automobiles. The building is relatively intact, with a new garage door and covered transoms. The display windows where the small showroom once was may have been replaced, but appear similar to the originals. It is now used for parking.
