Built in 1927 by W.H. Lewis as one of the city's earliest gas stations, the building was purchased in 1929 by Independent Oil, which later became Phillips 66, and remodeled from a frame structure with rubblestone veneer into Tudor Revival Style. Independent owner-operators ran it, including John Hickman from the 1930s to 1963 and Bill Johnson from 1963 to 1977. Phillips sold the building in 1974 to Wm. W. and Virginia Gregg. In 1998 Gordon and Kandy Greg Webb bought and renovated it for Kandy's law office, and the gas station's original outdoor lamps can be seen inside each bay window.
