The land lies on the southwest side of the Livingston County town. O Donnell s plan was to build a gas station that he could lease to his son. The project went ahead and the station was modeled after a 1916 StandardOil of Ohio design. The station is of the house and canopy style and includes work bays which were clearly added at a later date. Upon careful inspection the interior walls of the bays reveal the later origin. The station continued to sell StandardOil products for its first several years but by 1940 it had switched to Phillips 66 brands. At least nine other stations besides O Donnell s dotted this part of Route 66 through Odell, the competition drove the addition of the bays by the 1940s.
