The Red Star Garage was built in 1920 by Ed and Art Gochenbach and sold during the depression to Paul Geiger and Ernie Crist. The business name came from their servicing the buses on the "Red Star Line. " Art Gochenbach built the very first tow truck in the Hebron area in this building. Hebron native Homer "Rocky" Gieger operated a Shell gas station at this location for 25 years. On the other side of the station, Bennie House had a garage and sold batteries for many years. The building now plays host to the Union Township street maintenance department as well as the Hebron Historical Society's "Hebron Area Museum."
