Neighborhoods - Marksheffel Real Estate

Marksheffel Road was named for the family that built and ran the giant Marksheffel Garage and Marksheffel Motor Co. starting in the early 1900s. The huge automobile garage covered the block where Penrose Library is today, facing Kiowa street and west to the Carnegie Library (the building mid-block with the round rotunda).
