Standin' on the Corner Park

Winslow, AZ

Oddities

A small downtown plaza with a bronze statue and a painted mural that honor a famous 1970s rock lyric.

Standin’ on the Corner Park in Winslow (Arizona) sits on Route 66 and honors the Eagles song “Take It Easy” (1972), which mentions the town. It opened in September 1999. At its center is a bronze statue by Ron Adamson of a musician with a guitar on a street corner. Behind it, a two-story mural by John Pugh shows more scenes from the song, including a flatbed truck and a shop window. A Ford flatbed truck is parked beside it for photos.

Since 2016 a statue of Glenn Frey, co-writer of the song, has joined the park. A large Route 66 shield is painted on the street, and the park is lit at night. From I-40, take exit 252 and drive east on Route 66 (Second Street). Nearby are the “Tiny Church of the Mother Road” and the “Whispering Giant” sculpture.
