You can definitely go stand on that famous corner in Winslow, Arizona; we just can't guarantee an attractive girl will slow down to make eyes at you. In 1999, Winslow built "Standin' on the Corner" Park alongside a stretch of Route 66 — an iconic bucket list road trip route — to cater to Eagles fans who can come snap a pic with a statue of a guy in a cowboy hat with a guitar at the toe of his boot. There's also a two-story mural and — of course — a shiny, red flatbed Ford. In September of 2016, a statue of Eagles co-founder Glenn Frey, who passed away earlier that year, was added.

Though Route 66 was not yet established, by the 1920’s Model-T’s were making their way westward on the Flagstaff-Winslow Highway, passing right by the Billy Adams’ trading post. Seeing an opportunity, he and hius wife, Myrtle, soon established one of the first tourist camps in Arizona, in 1920. Billy built 12 one-room cabins as well as overnight camping for those who couldn’t afford the $1 per night cabin fee. Winona didn't become 'official' until it was recognized by the USPS in 1924 at which point Myrtle Adams became its first Post Mistress, putting her in charge of hanging the mail sack outside so that it could be hooked by railroad men as the train rolled by.
