The Deco Arts Building, built 1928, originally was the Hyde Park Chevrolet dealership garage. Its 55th Street and Lake Park Avenue facades are covered in automotive-themed terracotta tiling. Look for cars, engine blocks, gears, traffic lights, crankshafts, wheels, dashboards(?) and other designs on the walls.
Nowadays its garage is used by Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and its reasonable rents attract small businesses to the upper floors. The first floor has a Century 21 realtor, a couple of restaurants, a couple of cleaners, a computer repair place and a bank.
