Like you, Cheryl, I really like the architecture of these early gas stations. They are disappearing like depots, barns, etc.

One man driving by noticed me taking photos and he said that the city was contemplating acquiring this structure and fixing it up as kind of a welcome center. Which sounds like a great idea. He did mention complicating issues, such as the old gas tanks underneath and any environmental problems they may have caused.

What character! Probably too small for an antique shop, but might work as an ice cream and/or coffee shop if the area would support that kind of venture. Would be a shame to lose such a quaint little place.
