1984 to PRESENT
In 1984, Mr. James Terry opened an auto repair shop there and continued to operate there until 2005. The building has been used for storage and a small welding shop is located there today. (13)
The Terry family are fantastic stewards of the property. They have kept it well maintained and preserved. Mr. Terry had opened up the upstairs portion of the station with chairs and tables along with a bar for entertaining friends and family. The east side door was added to meet city fire codes.
