One of the earliest car dealerships in Blackstone stood at this location, where the mechanics shop still exists in the peak of the building with assorted car parts and paperwork. Andrew Wainwright and Edwin Truly Orange operated a Ford dealership here sometime in the late 1930s, and it closed in the 1950s. The building was later merged with the Blackstone Hotel and later became the Sheffield Furniture Store. It is listed by the United States Department of the Interior National Park Service as a contributing structure on the National Register of Historic Places.
