former station Independence, MO |
This former station housed the Truman Heritage Habitat for Humanity when these photos were taken in 2010. The long-vacant building was nearly demolished in 1993. However, it was spared due its connection with Harry Truman who used to gas up his car here. In 1996, this station was used during the filming of Robert Altman's movie "Kansas City." By 2018, the building was housing a Farmers Insurance office. [map] |
