The Route 66 Center that’s being built in a vintage gas station in downtown Webb City, Mo., will open Tuesday morning, reported the Joplin Globe.

The building one block west of Main Street on Broadway will house a shop of Webb City and Route 66 merchandise, a display room, a meeting room, and an office.

It also includes a mural by Major John Biggs. The mural’s a beauty; you can see it here in the photo gallery of the Route 66 Center.

The opening, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, is 10 a.m. Tuesday.
