| Notes | Significance statement: The Sherman Hayes Garage had "one of the most attractive automobile sales room s in the Willamette valley" . The 65'x120' building had a repair area in the nort h end, a garage for 25 cars in the middle, and a sales room in the south . It was built by Webster I . Kincaid for Sherman Hayes, manager of the Overland an d Hudson Agency . No historic photos have been located except for a small 1952 partial view showing awnings . Ormond Bean ran Lawrence's Eugene branch office , and probably did much of the design work himself for this mostly utilitarian building . Bean later became a Portland City Commissioner and well-known stat e official . The building housed a series of auto companies until 1942, was th e Lane Co . USO during WWII, then subdivided and housed a medical pharmacy, First California Co ., Inc ., electronics shops, and others . The Metropol Cafe (now Cafe Zenon) moved in in June 1983 . Because the interiors have been totall y altered, the historic significance of this building is slight . |
