Palm Springs Tramway Gas Station

Albert Frey, the famed modernist architect who helped to establish the desert modern style centered around Palm Springs, California, designed the Tramway Gas Station with Robson Chambers. It was built in 1965 as an Enco service station, however today it's the Palm Springs Visitor Center. The building is located at the base of the road leading up to the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway - hence the name.
