McDaniel Motor Company car showroom, 819 S. Brand Ave, Glendale, California, circa mid 1920sAnd from the They Sure Don’t Make Car Showrooms Like That Anymore file, comes this gem of a building with gorgeous bas relief panels over the doors. The McDaniel Motor Co. built their car showroom at 819 S. Brand Ave in Glendale. I don’t know much about them, but it looks like they sold Nash automobiles. The beautiful two-toned vehicle parked out front (on the right) is a 1926 Nash, possibly as an advertisement because behind it is the price tag: $999.99

** UPDATE ** – According to someone on Facebook, the building was demolished in the late 1990s.

That building is gone but that site is still a car sales lot. This image is from August 2022.

    You would think that cities would want to save these beautiful buildings! So sad that they are just torn down.
