Twentysix Repurposed Gasoline Stations

Not long ago, gasoline stations were service stations. They were places that not only sold gasoline, but that also repaired your car, sold tires and batteries, and even supplied maps for your trips at no charge. The station owner's name was over the office door, and though the big sign on the corner said Gulf or Sunoco, it was his business.

Today, with few exceptions, we pump our own gas. If we interact with someone at the gas station, it is to buy drinks, snacks, cigarettes or lottery tickets. Many of those former service stations provide the same services as before, they just don't sell gas.

The Highland Park Village shopping center, located in Highland Park, Texas, opened in 1931 as the first self-contained shopping center in America. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2000. Photographed for Omniplan Architects, who have worked with the new owners to improve the center with modest expansions, including the new clock tower.
