Abandoned Rest Areas

[AABattery]

It's demolished now but there's a service plaza off I-77 North a bit past Princeton (@ MM17) that's now just a parking lot and some rubble. It's currently being remodeled, so it'll be back in some time

They're 'remodeling' it.

Not abandoning it.

US 50 in Illinois just west of the Indiana border.  The 1999 Google Earth imagery shows the building, but the 2003 imagery does not.

I noticed on W bound I-70 the rest area in OH right before the IN boarder is gone

Ok I've got a couple more I'd like to share in Washington and then I'll hit a couple I know about in Oregon. 

So I don't remember this rest stop, or wayside, but I've had a few people give me vague information about it and maybe just maybe someone here will have some additional information or maybe be able to look on an old Washington state highway map. 

So this was on highway 202 between Redmond and Fall City, Wa.  The most likely locations would be at either end of the measurement on the map.  https://maps.app.goo.gl/1Typ1n8S7MrK8aNH6  I've been told that there may have been a small camping loop at this rest stop.  But I'm not banking to much stock into that, but it's possible.  It would have been closed in the 70's some time I think.  I know little else.  Maybe someone can help me out with this.

Thanks.

I immediately consulted my old maps when I read the above post months ago, but found nothing. Just now I saw the 1985 WSDOT inventory video on SR-202, and here is the rest stop, right where you guessed it would be.  I have it cued up to where the driver announces the sign for the rest stop.

I believe that was to be an IL welcome center, had I-64 followed the 50/150 route to Louisville from St. Louis via Lawrenceville/Vincennes
