That’s the old “Colonial Amoco”. Owned and operated by McMahan Oil Company by my grandfather Dewey McMahan and eventually my father Bill Miller. I had the AMOCO pump globe in my bedroom growing up in the 70s.
Sharon Burns says
Looks like corner of Port Street…
Tracy Cohee says
Is this the corner opposite where the Shell station sits on Washington Street (a block up from Christ Church)??

Colonial Amoco – built by my Grandfather (Dewey McMahan) in 1959 or so. It was his pride and joy at the time. Dad and I sold it to the Ullah family (U5) in the late 90’s and they converted the service bays to a convenience store.
The floors of the shop had “Hydronic” heating which features hot water pipes running through the poured concrete. Colonial never was a huge pumper for us but certainly a downtown Easton fixture.
