Tipp of the Town restaurant in the foreground.

The gas station part is now a bank and is no longer connected to the restaurant. The Travelodge in the picture has been torn down and now a Holiday Inn Express stands in its place.

The Travelodge Motel and the Calico Kitchen restaurant in this photo.

The restaurnat was, unfortunatly, demolished in 2018 after 30 years as Tipp O' The Town and a Taco Bell stands in the former parking lot on the left (east) of the building. I was a cook there, people still tell me they miss it.

Great capture of the Pure transition to Union 76. Pure Oil was bought out by Union 76 in the late 60s. Notice that the gas station building says Union even though the pole sign still says Pure.
