Cloverleaf Motel, Off
Route 146, between Lincoln and Woonsocket, RI
(This motel is no longer standing. The sign is great though.
Its right off the interchange going to the mall.)
|
Safari Inn, Murfreesboro,
TN
(This motel is a 1970's Interstate variety. I think that A-Frame
office is a give away on that one. It is hidden back from the
access road, but its worth the drive back to see it.)
|
Hotel, On Route 6, Rhode
Island
(Directly across from Jiggers Diner. Great sign that the American
Diner Museum would like to aquire.)

Imperial Inn Motel,
Murfreesboro, TN
(A great motel on Broad Street. This was formerly an Imperial
400 motel. The signs and imagery of the I400 still exist. Perhaps
the most defining feature is the gull wing detail.)
|
Imperial Inn Motel,
Murfreesboro, TN
(Don't you just love this sign? What a great collection of
signs and images all with that gull wing!)
|
Imperial Inn Motel,
Murfreesboro, TN
(This back shot of the motel shows its U-shaped look and the
room layout. It is mostly used as a flop house now, but the elements
of the old motel still exist.)

Motel
Murfreesboro, Murfreesboro, TN
(This is a classic U-shaped, one story motel. It used to have
a Huddle House restaurant on the side, but it now has a Quizno's
sandwich shop. Its sort of gone downhill, but I just love that
big sign and the classic shape of the structure.)
