History and architectural features

Built in 1937, this complex includes four contributing buildings. They are a service station and motel office, a house, and two multiple rental units. The buildings have Tudor Revival design influences, including half-timbering and rough-faced stucco finish. The service station is a one-and-one-half-story, "T"-shaped building with a steeply pitched cross gable roof. It is linked to the office by a one-story breezeway.[2]

This property is also referred to as Icabod's Plaza or Icabod's News.[3][4]
