The Aztec Motor Company Building, at 301 S. Main in Aztec, New Mexico, was built around 1906. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
It was built with common bond brick walls upon a stone foundation. It is the only intact one-story commercial building in business district of Aztec which was built "in the local Decorative Brick style, a type which once accounted for half a dozen buildings on Main Street. Built about 1906, it first served as a feed store, with a livery stable attached to the south. In the 1920s, as often happened, it was converted to a car dealership. Floyd Rhodes has continued to operate this Chrysler-Plymouth dealership since the 1930s."[2]
In 1984, the building had a painted sign on its side, stating "Aztec Motor Co General Repair.", and, also on the side of the building, a projecting sign with "Aztec Motor Co."[2]
