Phoenix Motor Company building, also known as the Dud R. Day Motor Company building[3], is a 1930 building created for the Phoenix Motor Company. It was designed by Lescher and Mahoney, who also designed the Orpheum Theatre[1].
After multiple owners, the building had been boarded over and covered with stucco, sitting empty[2]. The building was purchased by nightclub owners Pat Cantelme and Jim Kuykendall for $2.2 million in 2015. After receiving a grant for $250,000 to rehabilitate[3] the building's original storefront, doors, windows and roof trusses, it became a music hall in August 2017.[1]
It was added to the Phoenix Historic Property Register in May 2017[4] and the National Register of Historic Places in 2018[1]
