A new cafe was built by Bob Harris in 1948 using a surplus World War II control tower. He named it Tommy's Cafe and Phillips 66 Station. The Bent Door Cafe was never the official name of the business before it closed in 1970. In 2006 the building was purchased by Roy and Ramona Kiewert with hopes to restore and reopen the building. As of the fall of 2017, that had not happened. A very faded sign above the large garage door on the right in this photo reads "Southwestern Art". The large cafe sign now at the Midpoint Cafe came from here after the Bent Door Cafe closed.
