Lorenzo Aiken Service Station - Spring City, Utah - Vintage Gas Stations on Waymarking.com

As I was geocaching and finding waymarks, I saw this amazing old gas station and was surprised it wasn't already a waymark. I stopped and took pictures and coordinates so I could create one for it. I love this cute little building and hope it will be visited by others as well.


"Lorenzo Wilson Aiken, a sheep shearer, and his wife, Mary Jane Nielson Aiken built this corner service station, the 1st one in town, in 1924. Mary Jane and their small children ran the station from 1928-29 to keep Lorenzo on an Eastern States LDS mission. Later their son Denzel ran the station. The last person to run the station sold Shell and Wasatch gasoline. The Aikens’ c. 1908 pattern book brick house behind the station replaced a small log house. The current gas pumps originated at the John R Baxter Jr service station located on the west side of Main St. across from Strate’s Garage." (visit link)
