At various times this was a Shell and Texaco gas station and garage that
didn't make it, even with freeway access, two motels and two cafes next

again. Give someone credit for trying though.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
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.
