What a Ride! 🎢 🙌 Today we are saying goodbye to our time stewarding this beautiful old filling station in Downtown Benton. What started as a simple idea became a gathering space to experience meals, music, and incredibly special markets. The Main St. Station became a home and starting base for many small local businesses and a place where community could gather and connect.
We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who supported the Station and to the food trucks, coffee, ice cream, and activewear shops, artisanal and produce markets -- All who helped make this space what it was. Your presence gave it purpose and together we’ve been part of the rejuvenation of Downtown Benton.
The property has been passed on to new owners who are excited to continue investing in the downtown area and dedicated to serving the community. While we’re closing this chapter, we’re proud of what the community built here — and excited to see what comes next.
Share some of our favorite memories over the years with these photos and be sure to click all the way through for a special Easter Egg! Special thanks to the Saline County History & Heritage FB Group for this wonderful photo of the original station built in 1938.
