Tower Building. The distinctive Tower Building was one of many commercial structures erected in the early 1930s along new U.S. Route 66. Designed by Pampa architect, J. C. Berry, the structure was built by local entrepreneur, J. M. Tindall in 1936. The Tower Building is an excellent example of a gas

station/diner of the 1930s and exhibits many elements of the art deco style, curvilinear massing, and neon highlights. (Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, 1994) #5513
