The historic La Plaza, located in downtown Palm Springs, was one of the first multi-use shopping centers in Southern California.
A Mobil gas station was located in the center median on the east side of the beautiful Spanish Colonial Revival complex facing Indian Avenue. The gas station was designed by architect Harry Williams, father of Palm Springs architects E. Stewart Williams and Roger Williams.
Overhangs were built into the building's design to shade both the customers and the gas attendant as they were pumping gas in the hot desert sun.
This small building has functioned throughout its history as a Mobile gas station c. 1936, Greyhound Bus Station c. 1941, the Plaza Date Shop c. 1949, A&W Root Beer c. 1959, and now it is the home of Tyler's Burgers.
