A filling station opens on the corner of Commerce Street and the new Seventh Avenue South
A gas station operated on the small triangle at the southwest corner of Seventh Avenue South and Commerce Street from 1922 until 1974. Its small building survived: when a couple bought the property in the 1980s, they found they could not tear it down and turned it into an office and guest house. An art studio was added later.
