Threatt Filling Station, Historic filling station on Route 66, Oklahoma, US

The sandstone building features wide eaves and triangular braces on each gable, maintaining its original architectural design from the early 1900s.

Allen Threatt established this roadside station in 1915, creating a safe stopping point for African American travelers along Route 66 during segregation.

The station represents the evolution of transportation in Oklahoma, marking the transition from horse-drawn carriages to motor vehicles in rural America.

Located at the intersection of Historic Route 66 and North Pottawatomi Road in Luther, visitors can observe the exterior structure from the roadway.

The National Park Service Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program allocated grants in 2018 and 2021 to protect this historic structure.

Location: Oklahoma County

Inception: 1915
