2026 Museum of Rt. 66

Page 42 Museum of Route 66 Lincoln Daily News June/July 2026 By late spring 2026 the vision moves to become a reality at the Museum of Route 66 In the fall of 2025, Lincoln Director of Director Scott McCoy and Assistant Lexie Groves began taking apart the interior of the former banking center to make room for the new sections that would recreate a nostalgic experience of stops on Route 66. Before McCoy and Groves could set up the various areas of the museum, Brady’s Painting and Construction worked on construction of several indoor sections. In addition, Carpet House installed new carpet in various sections of the museum. A watermelon bench just outside the museum has been attracting many people walking by who sit down on it for a photo opportunity. A second watermelon bench is in the entrance to museum right in front of the ticket booth.
