Goad Motor Company Building
historic place
The Goad Motor Company Building is located in San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas. This historic place was constructed in 1927. Pioneer Texas automobile dealer Thomas Jefferson Goad built it for his Cadillac-LaSalle dealership, established in San Antonio in 1924. Architect Harvey P. Smith designed the building. Its showroom featured Spanish tile, wrought iron, and imitation travertine. The building expanded, with a third story added by 1934, and further growth in 1951 for a used car market and service department. Goad sold the business in 1964, but the building continued as a Cadillac dealership until 1996. It was later converted into residential lofts and offices. The Goad Motor Company Building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, recognizing its architectural significance and its role in San Antonio's automotive history. Specific historical marker text and its erection year are not available.
