Wilkerson's Gas Station
I-40, exit 300, north frontage road, Newkirk, NM
Phone:
The old adobe Wilkerson's Station has seen seriously better days, to say
the least. Since the station closed it's apparently been on a continuous
downhill ride. This is often reported as having been a Gulf station, but
the truncated, "V" shape of the canopy makes me think that this
was a Phillips 66 station at some point. There was a Gulf station in Newkirk,
but it may have been at a different location.
The
building is not so slowly falling apart. The front windows have shattered,
maybe from the stress of the collapsing walls and roof.
