"The former Gulf Oil Company station (photograph 1), along East
Broad Street, is an example of a Tudor Revival style. Built in the
1920s, the white-painted, brick building features a high-pitched blue
tile roof with a projecting front gable. This front gable is
decorated by a half-timbering pattern and supported by wooden columns.
"....While most
are modest one and two story commercial stores, there are a few
outstanding buildings in the district, including bank buildings, a
drug store, and a 1920s gas station which still reflects the oil
company's design. ... " ~ NRHP Nomination Form
