Take It Easy, The Eagles’ hit penned by Glen Frey and Jackson Brown, has helped put Winslow back in the national spotlight, as well as giving birth to the Standin’ on the Corner Park – located on the “corner” of Kinsley & 2nd Streets.

But Arizona remains the longest stretch of the original Route 66 in the U.S. This classic part of Americana still defines Winslow in many ways.

It later evolved into a kitschy roadside stop on Route 66 before closing in the 1980’s.
