    a couple of weeks ago i heard a driver say that it was being tore down. that place has alot of character. i use to stop in regular back in the late in the late 90's and early 00's. never really had any problems with ####roaches, ###### or he-shes. i do belive the showers where built before homosexuality was common............

    Is the whole place being torn down or is it just being gutted for rebuild?
    I have been glancing over at it for the last few weeks each time I pass it.
    I have not stopped at that place in years though.

    I passed there last week and I think they are taking it to the ground back in the 80's I stopped there a lot it was a good place to stop and eat and sleep.

    I passed by there yesterday and it looked to me like the place is being razed.

    Was by last week and they were seriously tearing it down. Never stopped there. I live about an hour away so never really had a need to. But always seemed like a decent large truck stop to compete with the Loves in Zanesville and the crap-tastic Pilot in Cambridge.

    I used it to park one night. Sad to say it's nothing but rubble now. (though they DID take the time to chain & block the driveway, figures.)

    Used to be a Greyhound stop, first time I saw it was on my way back from Driver Training/Oreintation.

    I'll miss the decidedly 60's architecture, but from what I saw on the inside, probably not much else was lost.

    I wouldn't mind if one of the big truck stop companies came in an re-opened it, (definately a good place for a stop) but I'd really like to see someone with an "air for flair" bring back the Jetsons deco.
