Gilbane's Service Center Building is a former automotive service station at 175-191 Pawtucket Avenue in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Built around 1931 in the Art Deco style, it is an L-shaped structure of concrete block finished in stucco, distinguished by a whimsical tower rising in five stepped tiers from a corner nearest the street, with similar details repeated along the roofline above the service bays. It is one of the finest surviving second-phase service stations in the state, a type offering repairs as well as fuel. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, it was later converted into a small shopping plaza.
