The Original Turtle
Midway South
Historic marker placed in 1990. What it doesn't say on here is, "don't expect this amazing little plaza to exist for much longer." Almost all of the other original service plazas have been completely destroyed and replaced by characterless "modern" facilities, with no trace remaining of the neat little stone buildings originally built in 1939-1940. See them while you still can. Already, Somerset is gone, just in the last three months. I have some images of Somerset South, but not as many as I've shot of Midway.
