The "since 1923" is puzzling as the CDs from back then don't seem to list any Texaco stations.

Sometimes service stations change affiliations with oil companies. It is possible that in 1923 this one started out as a gas station, just not one that sold Texaco gasoline.
Having said that, I have no idea of the location.
