The geometries of the service station island and the Art Deco styling of Dave’s Auto Repair at the intersection of 49th and 50th and Haverford Ave. suggest that it was active 20s-30s, while the tires stacked tenderly, the “Cash Only” warning and the hand painted sign tell of recent activity. Dave even saw that the roof was tarred, but by guys on the cheap — maybe a buddy’s side job or guys from the neighborhood — based on the stalactites of asphalt oozing from the parapet.
