Everhart Motors (Ford Dealership) Building
c. 1941. Northeast corner of Main and N. Pearl streets
The street corner holds a two-story block, and single-floor sections project off to each side. The building is sheathed in cream-colored glazed brick, with dark brown glazed tile used for decoration. The darker tile forms bands around the windows, as well as creating a number of horizontal bands reaching from the ground to the parapeted cornice. In style, the building is late Streamline Moderne. The present signage on the building and the pole sign are of a later vintage.
