Gold Dome in Oklahoma City | Route 66

Built in 1958, the Gold Dome in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma is a notable landmark along Route 66 that was inspired by the geodesic dome designed by famed architect, Buckminster Fuller. Originally housing the Citizens State Bank, the Gold Dome was praised for its revolutionary design from its inception and was touted as "the bank of tomorrow". 

While the structure has seen a variety of occupants since it was constructed, its unique architecture has fueled several decades worth of efforts to revitalize the historic property. These preservations efforts are still ongoing today with the hopes that visitors can continue to admire the iconic Gold Dome on their road trips through Oklahoma City for years to come.

Roy's Cafe in Amboy, California | Route 66

Located along a remote stretch of old Route 66, Roy's Cafe and Motel is a notable roadside attraction in the ghost town of Amboy, California

With all the characteristics of a quintessential mid-century pit stop, the location is now more of an art installation than a bustling roadside business. Most of the surrounding buildings are abandoned in Amboy, however it's enough of a draw to attract a trickle of onlookers who are willing to pull off this rough stretch of the Mother Road to have a look around.
