This house was built sometime around 1910 making it the oldest surviving
building in Glenrio. The Angel family owned it in the 1930s and 1940s,
but is was reportedly still in use in the 1970s. The stone walls of the
main house are covered with stucco which has fallen off in spots. A small
1930s addition on the back of the house has stuccoed wood walls. The house
sets back from the road and can be a little hard to spot when the trees
are full of leafs.

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.
