Description
Route 66 (The Mother Road) runs through downtown Springfield, Missouri past Hammons Tower and the Abou Ben Adhem Shrine Mosque. Route 66 does not, of course, "begin" in Springfield, but was conceived by a group of local businessmen in 1926. Springfield became the "Birthplace of route 66". The Shrine Mosque was built three years earlier and is one of Springfield's most recognizable landmarks with its domed terracotta turrets, but is not often seen from this vantage point.
