Sanborn maps from 1943 indicate this one-story brick building was complete, and in use as a produce packing house.  Construction materials noted were concrete floors, steel framing, and plaster walls.  The building is four bays wide on the First Avenue side, with the east elevation facing onto King Street having multi-light metal frame awning style windows, original to the building (Sanborn maps, city directories).

Commercial Building. ca. 1940. Contributing.

One-story rusticated concrete block structure.  Front facade intact with some minor changes.  Transom windows remain above the original garage door.  Roofline steps back from the street to a one-story brick addition at the rear, added ca. 1940, with rough-cut stone lintels and sills on all windows.  According to Sanborn maps, this structure was first used as a livery stable.  By 1912 it was changed to a garage and general auto repair shop.  By 1922 it was in use partially as a garage and partially as a feed warehouse.  1943 maps indicate the building was in use as a tractor repair shop and storage (Sanborn maps, city directories).
