The installation of the first gas station in Missouri back in 1905 was the green flag that escalated American drive-in culture. Ever since then, gas stations have become more than curbside filling stations. At every location, visitors are now given the chance to take a breather after a long journey, get some fresh air, buy some food or drink, or receive other car services. Gas stations have become more than just a place to fill up cars; with special add-ons and thoughtful design, they can become communal places to rest and refresh.
