Bringing Downtown Winslow Back to Life

When Interstate 40 bypassed Winslow, downtown businesses struggled. In 1994, local preservation efforts began helping restore the community's historic heart.

Inspired by the Eagles' hit song Take It Easy, volunteers brought Standin' on the Corner Park to life. The park was dedicated in September 1999 and became one of Winslow's most recognizable landmarks.
