This is a small retail building located on Portland Road in Salem. It only had the capacity for two tenants and was originally designed for Subway Sandwiches. The roof open-web wood chord joist with metal webs. The sheathing was plywood and was supported on masonry walls. The masonry walls were also used to resist the lateral forces. Overall this was a fairly straight forward building and construction went effortlessly and fast.
