Image title | A portion of what some call "the oldest building in the world" in Lamar, the county seat of Prowers County, Colorado. What's left of the old gas station gets its name because it is made of petrified wood -- in effect, wood turned to stone -- dating back 175 million years or so. Hoping to sidetrack tourists traveling along US 287 on their way through Lamar, Colorado to the Rocky Mountains, lumber dealer W. G. Brown built the one-of-a-kind structure in 1932. The largest piece of wood used in the station weighed 3,200 hundred pounds. The building walls and floors are constructed of large pieces of petrified wood too. The station became a tire store in 1962 and as of this image (in 2015) was part of a used-car lot. In fact, the owner kindly moved several vehicles that were obscuring what would otherwise have been a big tourist attraction. |
