In 1922 Mrs. Frances Plumley opened the Frances Hotel here and later added
a coffee shop. The Hotel was still in operation in 1954.
A
Hotel sign still hangs on the front of the building. I think the sign
has been renovated since I snapped this photo in 2017.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
