Built in 1955, one of many commercial buildings on Broadway designed by Bernard Friedman, the Saltzman building is indicative of shifting trends designed to engage the car and driver. The architecture functions as a corner billboard with glass wall curtains, integrated panel monument sign and night illumination, all designed to showcase the merchandise. Responding to the desert climate and the need to provide protection from the sun, a steel shade screen is projected in front of the glass on the west side of the building.
