From the National Register nomination
One-story painted stretcher-bond brick building with a parapet shed roof with stepped side parapets. Below the parapet is a vinyl shingle mansard supported by metal posts. Door and window openings have been altered but retain soldier-course lintels. To the rear is a brick flue, a garage door with wood-shingle infill, a prefab refrigeration unit, and a portable corrugated metal shed. The station was built by Burgess Nelson and operated by Nelson Huffman as a Gulf station. The World Space Video store occupied the building in 1982. Now Chanello's Pizza.
