A structure that was built during the heyday of downtown retail El Paso is being listed for sale for $1.2 million.
Located at 305 to 307 S. Stanton Street, the one-story building measures nearly 12,350 square feet and was completed in 1949.
Sitting on a less than half-acre site, the structure has through the decades served as retail space for several department stores.
Half of the building, at 305 S. Stanton, is currently the home to the Jewelry Box, which specializes in beauty supplies, cosmetics, jewelry, and lingerie.
For nearly a decade or so before 2016, the store was a National Dollar Store outlet.
Another part of the structure, at 307 S. Stanton, has served as an apparel shop.
Most of the retail structures on several blocks of S. Stanton were built in the late 1940s and early 50s and feature a Streamline Moderne architectural design.
Listed with Team Juan Uribe Real Estate Services, the 305 and 307 S. Stanton Street building underwent a renovation in the year 2000.
