Speed Mid-Mod?


What was the original use of this building? if anybody remembers let me know. I Love The butterfly roof and the fact that it's on Charleston lets me dream about what could have been here. Bennation@yahoo.com

The building with the butterfly roof is a former Mister Donut. See this page for more examples:

Having lived in Vegas all my life (since the 40's), I can tell you that prior to being a donut shop this was a shoe repair for many years. My husband went there frequently and after it closed we never found another shoe repair anywhere. Guess that became a dying art so like everything else now you just throw away your shoes and never dream of repairing them.
