The Amoco gas station is now called 4Cornes Lube. It is an oil change business and they sell lawn mowers too. The hotel in the background is still standing and in operation. The Mobile gas station is gone and McDonalds moved from there previous location to this corner The roadways are changed slightly and there is a four-way stop light system in place.
Just to add it is the Redwood Motel.
In the background is the Redwood Motel, 725 Hickox, Lincoln, Illinois. View looks south.
From an old postcard --
REDWOOD MOTEL -- Junction - 10 - 21 -- LINCOLN, ILL. -- Only 15 cozy - very clean units -- Stop early or reserve. -- Color T.V. - Air Conditioned - Phones -- Moderate Prices -- Restaurant Adjacent -- AAA approved.
