Description
Pete's Garage, auto repair and welding. Dilapidated building surrounded by other buildings. Building is all brick with two curved windows. Door is wood. Small attached building on right side does not have a roof. A Volkswagon Beetle is driving by the building. The buildings on the left towards the back say "ice" and "use our drive in window." 

Buildings to the left were Liechtenstein Cleaners and ice house. The couple who owned the ice house harvested the ice from the pond that was once at Watkins Park. It was a delivery ice service. The building to the far right was the Smith's Food Kings, "Home of the Red Carpet Service." Directly across the street from Pete's Garage was the Christensen Academy Building.
