former station
Collinsville, IL
The former station was built between 1927 and 1930. The adjoining building with service bays was built in the 1930s and has sliding doors that move from side to side. This station became home to Eck Auto Service in 1958. The window canopies, pointed windows on the garage doors, etc. are all original. While many people, including the owner and the National Register of Historic Places, have identified this as a Phillips 66 station, this was not one of that company's designs. It was probably built by a local oil company and may have been a Phillips 66 later on. [map]

The former Phillips 66 station in Little York was apparently being restored, or at least held together, when this photo was taken in 2012. The scaffolding was still there in 2023. [map]

This building in West Frankfort looks like a former Phillips 66 station or it was at least built to look like one. The partial stonework must have been added later. It appeared to be vacant when these photos were taken in 2010. It was still vacant in 2023. [map]

This former Phillips 66 station had served as the office for Wayne's Used Cars when this photo was taken in 2009. By 2014, the building was housing Ross Wash-N-Go. By 2017, it was housing a used car lot office. [map]

This former Algonquin station looks somewhat similar to a Phillips 66 but I don't believe it ever was. It had housed Kings Motor Sales when these photos were taken in 2009. The building was vacant by 2012 and the pumps were gone. The building was still vacant in 2023. [map]
