600 Block S Federal and 7th St SE

Hunting for property information can sometimes be a crap-shoot.  Obviously based on the signage it’s owned by Brallier Plumbing, and the lot next to this one is owned by Brallier, but I was not able to locate the specific property listing for this parcel on the 600 block of south Federal Avenue.  I’m chalking it up as a documentation anomaly.

Does anyone have any information on what used to be in this building?  It looks like either an old service station, or the word’s smallest hotel.

I need to reiterate that I really do like the buildings I post on here.  Many of them have interesting quirks that are probably not conducive to purchase or rental for a viable business, but I still would love to see an active business utilizing the plethora of vacant space in the city, even if those spaces are individually small.  I do my best not to just be simply negative in tone when I write about these buildings.

Did you notice that I managed to get two dumpsters in the background of the first image?

    From what I was told this used to be either a Skelly or Texaco gas station. It was a full service station and the pumps used to sit on the island out front.

    I’m pretty sure it used to be in the service station and I’m also pretty sure the archives has some information on it, but I can’t recall it off the top of my head.
