Craig's early gas stations
The small brick station on the southeast corner of East Victory Way and Yampa Avenue was built in the summer of 1921. It was torn down in 1931 to make way for its modern replacement, which was torn down more than 30 years ago. Today, the site is a parking lot. The event taking place in the intersection in this 1926 photograph was the dedication to mark the completion of the new Texaco refinery located just west of Craig.
