Flagstaff Visitor Center
HISTORIC TRAIN STATION
One E. Route 66
The historic train station, built
in 1926, was formally the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railroad depot. Today it
doubles as the Amtrak station
and Flagstaff Visitor Center
where travelers can find
information about the area,
purchase souvenirs and get insider travel tips.
(By the light post on the west side of the platform near the black fence.)

Coconino County
COURTHOUSE
HOTEL MONTE VISTA
HISTORIC DOWNTOWN
100 N. San Francisco St.
Built in 1926, the Hotel Monte
Vista is one of Flagstaff’s premier
historic hotels playing host to
visitors from around the world.
Celebrities like John Wayne,
Anthony Hopkins and Bing Crosby
have stayed in this iconic hotel.
John Wayne claims to have seen
the Phantom Bellboy, one of many hotel guests who never checked out.

Weatherford
HOTEL
200 N. San Francisco St.
The Coconino County Courthouse
was built in 1894 after the
creation of Coconino County in
1891. The original sandstone brick
courthouse still stands; however,
from 1956 to 1979 modern
additions were added creating the
larger building seen today. The
courthouse is one of the oldest buildings still standing in Flagstaff.
23 N. Leroux St.
In 1900 the Weatherford Hotel
opened its doors to the public.
Built and founded by John
Weatherford, the hotel has
become one of Flagstaff’s most
iconic buildings. With four distinct
bar areas and one restaurant it is
a great place to enjoy a meal and
listen to music.

Orpheum Theater
MARQUEE
15 W. Aspen Ave
The Orpheum Theater, Flagstaff’s
first movie house, opened in
1917 after the original building
on this sight collapsed during a
heavy snowfall in 1915. It showed
movies until the late 1990s but in
2002 the theater was renovated
to be used as a concert and
performing arts venue, where you can still catch the occasional movie screening.
(Across the street on the north side of Aspen Ave. in front of Pay & Take.)

MOTEL DUBEAU
CLASSIC ROUTE 66 MOTEL
19 W. Phoenix Ave.
This corner was on the original
1920s alignment of Route 66,
which is why Mr. A. E. DuBeau
found it to be the perfect spot to
build his “Motel Inn” in 1929. The
property was designed
for the “better class of
motorist” and featured
in-room baths and heated garages.

(Northwest corner of Beaver St. and Phoenix Ave., near the parking area.)
Granny’s Closet
LUMBERJACK STATUE
218 S. Milton Rd.
This location, originally the
Lumberjack Café, was once
guarded by a 40 foot tall
fiberglass lumberjack. The
statue was the first of many like
it called “Muffler Men” which
were used as quirky roadside
advertising. Today the original
Lumberjack has been moved to the Northern Arizona University Skydome.

Galaxy Diner
ENTRYWAY NEON
931 E. Route 66

Saturdays, the classic cars on Friday or just enjoy the throwback
Route 66 diner experience.
