"Circa 1950" confused me on this, because the 1952 Sanborn map clearly shows a 2 story building in this location.

#38202 adds the necessary info. Fire in December 1950 destroyed this building. A new, smaller building was built before the 1952 Sanborn.

This building matches the size of the building in this spot as seen in the 1924 Sanborn.
