980 S. Third St. is now (2013) the site of a City of Memphis Traffic Signal Maintenance & Construction facility: www.google.com/maps/place/980+S+3rd+St,+Memphis,+TN+38106...

Looks like they just converted the old building (overhead satellite view): www.google.com/maps/place/980+S+3rd+St,+Memphis,+TN+38106...
