Note:

Using the company’s signature elements, Marsh designed this Coca-Cola bottling facility, a concrete and brick veneered structure as an advertisement of the company and the product, with the distinctive script over the entrance and big Coke bottles made by the local Ornamental Stone Company at the corners of the building. He is said to have planned it in coordination with local company president Luther Snyder. Large windows offered views of the bottling process.
