Part 1: Dresbach


Looking northwest at the southern end of the old alignment at exit 272A. The ramp onto the modern highway is visible on the left.


Looking north up County Road 12 into Dresbach.


An old service station in Dresbach.


(Updated - Aug 6, 2008) - The gray building with the green awning was once known as "Lloyd's Garage", and has been servicing vehicles since at least the 40's (it also may have sold new cars in the 50's). Gas was sold here until at least the 70's. The current owners, Tim and Peggy, had the tanks removed when they acquired the building in the early 80's. (Thanks to Tim and Peggy for the info!!!)


More views of Dresbach....


Leaving Dresbach...


Metal crib walls keep the Interstate from collapsing onto the old road between Dresbach and Dakota.
