This unique photograph captures the famous Leaning Tower of Britten, a beloved roadside attraction along Route 66 near Groom, Texas. Originally a functioning water tower, it was purchased in the 1980s by Ralph Britten, who tilted it deliberately as a way to draw attention to his truck stop and restaurant, which once stood nearby. The tower has since become an iconic Route 66 landmark, known for its quirky, precarious lean that captivates travelers from around the world.
Although the truck stop and restaurant no longer exist, the leaning water tower continues to stand as a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of Route 66 entrepreneurs, who often devised imaginative ways to attract travelers to their businesses. The tower, emblazoned with "Britten USA" in bold letters, offers a nostalgic glimpse into the past when roadside attractions ruled the open highways of America.
The surrounding landscape, with its vast fields and open sky, provides the perfect backdrop for this iconic structure, creating a beautiful contrast between the natural Texas plains and the rusted charm of the old water tower. This fine art print is the perfect way to bring a piece of Route 66’s colorful history into your home or office.
