The great big Amoco sign was only there until perhaps mid-2008 then it converted to a normal BP station without the huge beacon of a sign.
US-40/I-64 (no one in STL calls it I-64, FWIW) at Skinker. I graduated from Washington University, so I lived very near there for 9 semesters.
I had not really noticed that the sign was now down. At some point, you tune out the noise, including what may have been the world's largest Amoco sign.
