This place is significant for its rarity, being one of the few themed service stations remaining within Perth. It has associations with transport and communications within the region. It is a well known landmark within the Guildford Road streetscape.
The garage evokes Moorish themes, with reference to the Alhmbra in Spain, for its canopy as a decorative treatment to dignify an otherwise utilitarian building.
This place is a fine example of a theme approach to service stations, which was once much more common and is now something of a rarity. It has Mediterranean influences, with reference to the Alhmbra in Spain. It is one of the few remaining theme service stations in the Metropolitan area.
