Vintage Gas Station Bathrooms

An Old Fill Station Becomes a Quirky Rest Stop and Washroom

In Bowling Green, Kentucky, a vintage Standard Oil and Company gas station has been ingeniously preserved and renovated to become a rest stop with public washrooms. This vintage gas station bathroom is one that Britney Spears would be proud to walk out of sans shoes.

Dorian Walker, John Atkerson, Miranda Clements, Heather Rogers and Carroll Hildreth banded together to restore the filling station by turning it into a rest stop. This vintage gas station bathroom is the classiest stop on what was once known as Automotive Alley and makes for a popular tourist photograph.
