UPDATE: 4/5/2019: WOW! Look at the transformation this building has undergone since we visited five years ago. The station is now occupied as an art gallery and antique store, vintage gas pumps have been placed in front, and murals have been painted all over the building. It is a beautiful sight.
Located on the northeast corner of Cedar Avenue and 2nd Street (old Route 66), this station would have served travelers along the iconic Route 66. The building is masonry and has what appears to be a newer stone veneer. The building has an angled front, facing the intersection. Above the entrance is a flat wood canopy with wood shingles.
The gasoline service island still exists, however the gas pumps have been removed. No information could be obtained as to what brand station this once was. In recent times, it housed Dougherty's Truck and Auto Service Center and Country Store, however, the building is vacant at this time.
Address of the station:
