Winslow

Founded by the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad in 1880, Winslow evolved from a company boomtown into a small city whose historic character is defined primarily by its location along US Route 66 since the highway's designation in 1926. Now Historic Route 66, it runs the length of Winslow on Second and Third Streets, which are lined with renovated early- to mid-20th-century buildings.

As director of the Winslow Historical Society's Old Trails Museum, author Ann-Mary J. Lutzick researches and writes about how Winslow's rich history is reflected in its buildings and sites along Route 66 and beyond, many of which are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
