The Historic Sinclair Gas Station

Since 1926, the Sinclair gas station had been part of the Hayden landscape and had served as a stopping off point for not only local citizens, but also those many who traveled US Hwy. 50. The Hayden Historical Museum was fortunate to get the chance to obtain this structure in 2001.

Through the generosity of many, we were able to have the building moved and then restored to reflect an era of our past. While some of the landmarks we associate with out youth are now gone, here is one that was saved and will stand for many years to come. We have tried our best to give it the feeling of stepping back in time... a time when things went at a slower pace. We have the old Coca Cola cooler filled with iced down (glass) bottles of pop and some old fashion snacks available.
