Motel Washoe Sign is Gone
by Scott Schrantz Source: http://aroundcarson.com/2010/06/09/motel_washoe_sign_is_gone The sign for the Motel Washoe has been taken down. It was located in the Washoe Valley, right along Hwy 395 in New Washoe City. It survived several years after the motel itself was torn down. Years of rust finally made the sign crumple on itself, and persons unknown removed it and carried it away in late May, 2010.On Flickr, photographer ussiwojima was able to get a picture of it in its last weeks, after it had started crumpling under its own weight.Photo by Flickr user ussiwojima
