The Cheyenne Flour Milling Company, also known as the Standard Oil Company and Salt Creek Freightways, is an early warehouse building in
The oldest section of the L-shaped building is a one-story masonry building, 40 feet (12 m) by 32 feet (9.8 m), with a flat roof. A brick two-story section dates to 1927 and measures 70 feet (21 m) by 32 feet (9.8 m). This section has a stepped parapet. A cone-story concrete block addition was built in 1936, measuring about 36 feet (11 m) by 16 feet (4.9 m). Another brick addition abuts the connector, and appears to have been built as an office. Some of the masonry exhibits fire damage, attributed to its time as a potato chip factory. The facades retain a number of painted signs for the businesses that operated there.[2]
The complex was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]
