United States historic place / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Studebaker Showroom is a historic commercial building at 519 Port Arthur Avenue (corner of De Queen) in downtown Mena, Arkansas. It is a single-story stuccoed concrete block structure with a flat roof. Built in 1948, it is a distinctive local example of the Moderne style, with rounded corners on the corners of the front part of the building. This includes a projecting showroom section and the corners of the main service and sales area behind, which are decorated with banks of glass blocks, another Moderne hallmark.[2]
