The Teapot Dome Gas Station on Yakima Valley Highway, Zillah, Washington
Referencing the controversy surrounding Warren G. Harding's presidency, the Teapot Dome Gas Station has reached mythic status. Its original home was on Highway 410, but it moved 56 years later during the construction of Interstate 82 in 1978. Now, the teapot sits empty just outside of Zillah. In 2007 it was put on The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation's Most Endangered Historic Properties list, while The Friends of the Teapot Association attempted to refurb it until the move and restoration price tag was revealed: $250,000.

I hope preservation efforts are in the works for these wonderful pieces of Americana. These historic places tell us what was exciting for the traveler in a simpler time. Also, someone created and built these places. This work may represent their finest hour; their 15 minutes of fame. They deserve some homage.
My family loves traveling to see roadside attractions like these for our Go BIG or Go Home Travel Blog!
