O. E. Carter & Ed Lawson opened a Phillips 66 gas station here in 1935. They also sold Barnsdall Products here. They owned and operated the station until 1950 when they moved their business to Phillipsburg. This was one of three stations that they owned over the years. Probably the most notable thing about the heavily remodeled building is the color of the roof, at least in this 2018 photo. The service bay with the shed style roof on the right in this photo is a later addition. The building is located on Elm St. (Route 66) & Washington Ave.

Under other ownership this was still a gas station until 1971 when the Elmore family moved their Orchard Hills Package Store into the building. Their original 1946 location had also been on Route 66. The Elmore family still runs the business, but the roof is all one color now..
