Photo: #Construction of the cantilevered roof over Dick's Master Service in Cloquet in 1957. The station was designed by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
Photo: #Robert Pond, Frank Lloyd Wright's assistant architect on site during construction of the gas station, is on the left. Station owner Ray Lindolm is on the right. The photo was taken during construction of the station in 1957.
Photo: #Owner John McKinney says it's a testament to Wright's design that the building still serves as a gas station.
