The coordinates are for the front door of the Arizona Historical Society museum in Papago Park. On the second floor of the museum, you will find a recreation of a World War II army camp, complete with a canteen and exhibits on Arizona's role in World War II (mostly as the site of a German POW camp and a training area for pilots). Part of the recreated army camp is a Flying A gas station, complete with a vintage gasoline pump.
