The Magnolia Company Filling Station is a historic automotive service station building at 492 West Lafayette Street in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It is a small single-story white hip-roofed brick building, with a portico, supported by brick piers, extending over the area where the fuel pumps were originally located. The building has a center entrance, with a single sash window to the left, and a large window (formerly a doorway) to the right. Built in 1925, it is one of the region's oldest surviving gas stations, and the only surviving one known to have been built by the Magnolia Company.[2]
