Although the original pumps are gone, the structure is described as virtually unaltered. The reviewer's notes record acceptance under Criterion C.","narrative":"Built around 1925 at 102 S. William Street, at the east end of Victoria's central business district, this small service station was designed for the early automobile trade. It is a one-story building of stuccoed concrete with a hip roof and exposed rafters. An office portion has fixed display windows and a single door, while an inset two-bay service area has elliptical arched openings with tiles set in the spandrels. Two bays face east and one faces north. The station was listed because of its architecture. It is one of only two service stations built before 1935 that survive in Victoria. The original pumps have been removed, but the structure remains virtually unaltered. A 1983 survey recorded its condition as fair and its use as a commercial gas station, the same kind of use it was built for. The architect and builder are not identified in the survey record.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Present use is commercial (gas station); condition is listed as fair.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:20.772226-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/80/9703/40970380/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86002595.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40970380","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Company_Filling_Station","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q55757521"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/victoria-county/texas-company-filling-station-86002595/"}
