Winslow is an Amtrak train station at 501 East Second Street in Winslow, Navajo County, eastern Arizona. It is served daily by Amtrak's Southwest Chief between Chicago and Los Angeles. The Santa Fe Depot and La Posada Hotel Harvey House compound are the centerpiece of the La Posada Historic District (established 1992).

Architecture

The Santa Fe Railway station was built in 1929, and the adjacent La Posada Hotel and Gardens was completed in 1930.[3]

Both were designed by renowned architect Mary Jane Colter.[3] She is the architect of various notable Fred Harvey Company buildings, including others at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and in New Mexico. She considered La Posada Hotel as her integrated interior/exterior masterpiece.[3]

Hotel

La Posada Hotel, and the depot, combine elements of the Mission Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival architecture styles. Characteristic Colter designed features include shaded colonnades and arcades, restaurants, red clay tile roofs above massed stuccoed walls, courtyards and acres of gardens, custom furniture, and decorative wrought ironwork throughout. The hotel building had two main entrances, a southern one on train platform and a northern one on the street for local people and U.S. Route 66 travelers.[4][5]

La Posada is one of the last of a series of hotel-depot complexes built across the Southwestern United States in a collaboration between Fred Harvey and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway.

The hotel was closed in 1957, turned into offices, and later abandoned.

Bought in 1997 to save it, it was substantially restored to reopen as a historic hotel and restaurant complex. Further restoration of the buildings and historic gardens is ongoing.[6] A parking lot and field east of the hotel totaling {{convert|8|acres}} is being converted into a sculpture garden, orchard, and potager garden by the Winslow Arts Trust (WAT).[7]

The Turquoise Room, the hotel's restaurant, was rated as one of the top 3 restaurants in the United States by Conde Naste in 2009.[8] The Tina Mion Museum exhibits Mion's contemporary paintings in the hotel's former {{convert|3000|ft2}} ballroom.[9]

La Posada Hotel is mentioned in the Lost Dogs song "Goodbye Winslow" about traveling Route 66, on their album Old Angel.

Depot

The Santa Fe Depot building serves as the present day Winslow Amtrak station. It was also renovated by the Winslow Arts Trust to house the Route 66 Art Museum, celebrating the culture of Winslow and the historic U.S. Route 66 in Arizona corridor.[10] In June 2016, work began to convert the depot section into a fine art museum.[11]
