Baker’s Garage & Sohio Gas Station in Lower Salem OH, Washington County

 According to Glen Baker, owner of this garage, at one time there was a restaurant on one side and a house on the other side of this building. Lower Salem, like so many small Ohio towns, was once booming with businesses.  Glen’s father owned this one. Glen also had nice looking cars around the place there in Lower Salem. This is my attempt in watercolor of recreating that place. I’m sure there were things I missed but without any reference photo of them, it’s hard to imagine. I hope there is some semblance of the old place. Lower Salem has suffered many floods in recent years but this building is still standing, minus the gas pumps and signs.
