Standin’ on the Corner in Winslow, Arizona

Winslow, Arizona blossomed into the national consciousness after The Eagles mentioned the city in their hit song “Take it Easy.” Now, tourists flock to take pictures next to the Standin’ on the Corner Park and mural, but that’s not all the city has to offer. “Winslow has a huge history for a town of its size,” says Ann-Mary J. Lutzick, Director of the Old Trails Museum. “Historic Route 66 runs downtown, and there are Native American sites that people can see nearby.” Winslow hasn’t seen a significant population change in the last decade, but new businesses and restaurants continue to open, and community events are growing. The city’s location is also worth noting. “Winslow is like the middle of a wheel, where the spokes represent other destinations within a day’s drive,” says Lutzick.
