What to expect

The Tower Station and U-Drop Inn Cafe is a unique Art Deco landmark that once housed a gas station and a cafe. Built in 1936, it features two flared towers with geometric detailing, curvilinear massing, glazed ceramic tile walls, and neon light accents. The building has been restored to its original glory and now operates as a visitor center, chamber of commerce office, and community center. Families can visit this impressive example of Route 66 architecture and explore its historic significance
