Hedlund Motor Company Building
206 S. Main, Elk City, OKThe Hedlund Motor Company Building is significant for its Mission Revival style architecture and for its role in the commercial history of Elk City, Oklahoma.
Constructed in 1918, the Hedlund Motor Company building was designed in the Mission Revival style. It is the only example of this architectural influence applied to a commercial structure in Elk City.
Historically, the structure is also significant. Hedlund Motor Company was established in 1913 and is the second oldest Ford dealership in the state. The company had the nominated building constructed for its headquarters in 1918 as the original structure had become to small for the expanding business. It has continued to serve in a commercial use since that time.
Listed in National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
