Douglas Grocery - Chandler, OK This former Route 66 gas station and grocery store is located at a 90 degree bend of the highway in Chandler, OK. The roof and canopy have been replaced over the years, but the gas pump is believed to be original. The service bay has been bricked off. I like the old metal signs in the middle. The Fairmont Ice Cream sign in the middle includes the name Douglas Grocery. To the left are &-up, S&H Green Stamps and Pepsi. The smaller signs on the right include Sprite, Norka Cherry-Strawberry, Sinclair and Dixie Gasoline. On the far right is a Route 66 Roadside Attraction sign. This was from the Hampton Hotels Save-a-Landmark program, but probably moved here.

Sonic Drive In on Route 66 Service with the speed of Sound The Sonic Drive In along Route 66 in Chandler, OK has an interesting sign. I'm not sure if it's a new sign to look old or a repurposed old sign, but the neon tubing has been removed. I'm guess it's new as this location has been here less than three years - they moved across the street and this was a residential lot.
Lincoln Motel neon sign - Chandler, OK Lincoln Motel is a vintage motel along Route 66 in Chandler. This is also in Lincoln County, named for President Lincoln.
Lincoln Motel - Chandler, OK Lincoln Motel is a vintage motel along Route 66 in Chandler. This is also in Lincoln County, named for President Lincoln. Standalone rooms aren't really seen any more, although these are each dual units which would make them small by today's standards.
