When I started driving, oh so many years ago, Cities Service Gas and pumps like this were commonplace. How times have changed. This pump, located in the newest hometown of Brownwood, is to look at only. Don't touch. It's faux. But cute.
The Villages is one of the fastest-growing retirement communities in the United States.
Located in Central Florida, about an hour's drive northwest of Orlando, the Villages is now home to some 150,000 residents, many of which travel the area via golf cart.
There are now three "home towns" in The Villages, Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood. Music and dancing is provided nightly in the town squares of each of the home towns.
The Villages is a beautiful community and we hope you enjoy viewing our photos showcasing its many charms.

I wouldn't get excited about getting the pumps back, but I sure would like roll-back gas prices.
Wow! That brought back some memories!! What a great shot, Lowell!! Hope you have a great weekend!
Loooooove it!
Reminds me of a guy I shot for the blog a few years a go. His plan was to build a filling station in the style of the 1950s.
SO cool!
Really great !
