History
This wood-frame commercial building at 316 E. Sixth Street in Georgetown was built in 1920 and originally sold Saxon automobiles. Its street facade is clad in pressed metal stamped in a 'stone block' pattern, and the interior retains a beaded-board ceiling; a small addition was made to the south side around 1930. The building was placed on the National Register in 1986.
