Service station in ruins. Mansard roof in ruins.

In Savannah, Georgia, on December 31st, 2023, was a former service station at 1210 Drayton St, at the northeast corner of Drayton Street and East Henry Street.

 

It built in 1959 according to its Chatham County Board of Assessors record. It looks to me like it was remodeled circa the 1970s. In the 1960 Savannah city directory at ancestrylibrary.com, it is listed as the Jordan & Mamalakis Service Station.
