The Esso Standard Oil Service Station is a former automobile service station at 1600 West 3rd Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a single story rectangular building, built out of concrete blocks and finished with a baked enamel on steel exterior. It has three service bays on the left side, with original overhead glass-paned doors, and an office and sales space on the right side. The right side has a short canopy protruding from it, also built of concrete with a baked enamel finish. Built in 1957, it is a rare mid-century service station in the city.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.
