I biked down Roger at the urging of a resident who mentioned the high concentration of current and former auto body places there. I wasn't disappointed.
Garage No. 1: Roger and Humphrey (Carl's)
Built 1935
A place that really seems to be open, which might also have been a gas station at some point. Also, one of my favorite places to photograph so far.
Garage No. 2: Roger Place and Parker Ave.
Older Building–1925, Newer–1940 (I would guess the smaller building is the older one)
"Hollywood Auto" seems to be open as well. How it deals with competition from Carls, I don't know. It must be tough.
Garage No. 3: Roger Place and Miami Street
Year Built: 1939

I am not the only person who bikes around these places. |

A few short blocks down from the other two is this place; unlike the other two it is terribly dull and nondescript.
Is that a church steeple in the background? I can't remember. I'm not very proud of this picture. It's mostly here to get some context for the other pictures. |
Steeply sloped hill. Of course. |
