West side of 55 and 30

The Skelly Truck Located At The Northwest Corner Of Lincoln Highway (U.S. 30) And Interstate 55 In Plainfield, Illinois Near The Joliet Border. The Truck Would Become A Phillips 66 During The 1980's. The Truck Would Became A Clark After That, Possibly In The 1990's. Around 2007, This Truck Stop Closed Down. Then, This Truck Stop Sat Abandoned Until 2019 Or 2020 When It Was Torn Down. Recently, A Costco Opened Up On The Site Of This Truck Stop, With More Stores To Open Around The Costco In The Near Future.

The Same Truck Stop Can Be Seen Here In 1988 When It Was Already A Phillips 66
