This is kind of an unusual 1967 Marina variant. Per Eric Voytko, the shingled roof, which also seems to be gabled or at least sloping, was a recent addition related to a shopping center remodel. I'm torn between thinking it's a little odd-looking or wondering if it wasn't actually a fairly tasteful remodel (if one had to be done at all). It does seem to have been enlarged somewhat, to the left and right, but I'm not 100% sure even about that.
Has anyone seen this store in person? I'm strangely curious about its interior now.
Addendum: it all makes more sense from overhead.
