gas station replica
Bucyrus, OH
This gas station replica is part of Carl's Gas Station & Fifties Memories which features restored cars, toys, and other memorabilia. The building has lots of Sinclair-related items inside. [map]

Skip's Auto Service
Bucyrus, OH
Skip's Auto Service originally had a canopy. The building has been here since at least the mid-1930s. It was a Texaco station at one time. It may have been a Denver style Texaco station originally with additions to the left and right built later. [map]

former station [gone]
Warren, OH
This former station in Cleveland is probably from the 1920s or 1930s. It now houses a car repair shop. [map]

This former station in Warren was also most likely built in the 1920s or 1930s. It appeared to be vacant when these photos were taken in 2006. By 2011, the building was gone.

Lebanon, OH
former residence
Lebanon, OH
This former Shell station was built in the 1920s. This station was moved here in 1996 from a different part of town. The gas pumps are replicas built in 1999. [map]

There are two other buildings with pagoda roofs in town. This former station on the left houses East End Carry Out and a Budget rental office when this photo was taken in 2005. The building had been repainted yellow and red by 2017 and a Shell sign was installed. The tiles on the roof were replaced with shingles. Tables and chairs were installed for eating from the nearby fast food truck. [map]

The former residence had been used as a restaurant. It later housed Bella Photography. The building now houses the Arise hair studio. It was never a gas station but I'm including it here because of its similar tile roof. [map]

former station
Minerva, OH
This former station was built around 1910 and was Minerva's first gas station. I believe it was a Standard Oil station originally. The back part of the building is an addition. The building has been used as a gift shop and coffee shop in recent years. It housed Carol's Cedar Chest, a thrift store, when this photo was taken in 2010. Around 2011, the building began housing Drobe and The Exchanging Table. By 2018, the building had been restored and was housing the Sandy Springs Brewing Co. For more, see this website. [map]

Sohio station
Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum
Cleveland, OH
As of 2005, this Sohio station, built by the Standard Oil Company of Ohio, is in storage at the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum. The museum also had the remains of the Gas N Go station from Ashtabula. However, it was deemed too far gone for restoration and destroyed.
