The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Along 66, April 2019: Welcome Launching Pad and An Old Motel Seen Better Days


APRIL 22--  The Launching Pad Drive-In's grand reopening weekend is set for May 3 which coincides with the Illinois Route 66 Red Carpet Corridor Festival.  It is located in Wilmington (featuring, of course, the Gemini Giant).  The Red Carpet Corridor festival runs through the towns of Joliet south to Towanda, right outside Bloomington-Normal.

New owners are Tully Garrett and Holly Barker.  I get the idea that they may feature Carolina 'cue.  That would be REALLY GREAT!!

APRIL 23--  Lurvey Courts Motel in Springfield, Missouri may be demolished soon.  It has long been vacant and is covered in graffiti.  Actually, quite an eyesore where you can see it (much is covered with overgrowth.
