We first encountered Dan Luebke's service station in 2015, remarking how in 1964, he left the comfortable corner of Third and DePere for the Town of Menasha on Racine Road. During those years, the station changed its name from Cities Service to CITGO, keeping in line with the company's nationwide rebranding, giving a new sensibility to the modern 1960's.
Was Luebke's location on Third Street where Third Street Diner is now, or was it where Moto, formerly Coonen's is? I worked at the station where the Diner is for a few months in 1969.
ReplyDeleteIt was where the diner is now.
DeleteThe first station in Menasha was on the corner of Third and Racine, not where the diner is. Dan was my father.
ReplyDeleteMy mistake. I stand corrected.
DeleteHey David, it's ok. That was a long time ago. Happy Memorial Day!
