So I noticed this week that GT-ONE has appear to have moved/closed, as the building is now vacant and the cars are gone. After looking through the tax records, it appears this building was sold on 10/11/2012. The new owner is listed as "CHAPEL HILL DURHAM NC LP" but the registered address is to a collegiate housing company in Memphis, TN.
Based on that company's other projects, looks like this building may get demolished for new development.

My father worked at this station in the late 40's. It was operated by Cecil Thompson. Also employed there was Cecil's son, Jack, and Red Pickett.
