Former Phillips 66 & CafeHeartwood Rd., Hazelgreen, MOPhone:
The garage isn't busy right now, but there seems to be a shortage of mechanics and tools as well as customers. There is what's left of a triangular canopy on the east corner of the station that kid of resembles a style used on mid-century Phillips 66 stations. But its position and a low wall under part of it make me think it might have been an addition to an older building. There seems to be some debate about what this building was. Some say cafe, some say bar, some say retail store. Based on the proximity to a gas station I'm going with a calling it a cafe. It's the Ozarks, so they may well have sold souvenirs as well and maybe a brew or two, who knows. The big room is empty now, but all those windows seem to match the style of a cafe at the time.
