Gate City Lincoln Mercury

Here is the Gate City Lincoln Mercury dealership building at 303 North Church Street at Summit Avenue. It appears to be gone, but probably not forgotten. At one time, it was teeming with vehicles, customers, and sales people to greet you at the lot to encourage you to purchase a car. This location is near the Historical Museum, the Children's Museum, the Central Library and the future home of the Performing Arts Center. 

We don't know what this property will become; however, the long shadows of late afternoon loom large over the building. The front of the building, with the overhang that protects patrons from the elements, is especially charming.

It was bought recently, I think by Roy Carroll but not sure. Someone looking to cash in on the PAC.
