I took pictures as well.? The history of the quonset that I'm still confirming goes back to at least 1945 when Downey's Speedway Lumber was listed at 1114 N. Country Club (it had the whole corner lot).? It has to be a little earlier as the articles I found were in regards to a robbery that occurred in June.? In the late 50's or early 60's it became just Speedway Lumber, I only found mostly ads.? The car wash took over the property in 1967, which is the date both the county assessor and a private property search website that I have access to has, which is obviously incorrect as I spoke with a woman who works for the car wash who had spoken with a customer who is a lifetime Tucsonan and confirmed that it was there way before it became property of the car wash.? Another woman who was also taking photos also
confirmed it was there before the car wash as she grew up here.? I have not found the opening date of the lumber company, but I am researching it, as well as the original owners.? I will let the group know when I get the information.? Will add my photos as well.
