Reminder of the 70's along Rio Grande 17 – Bigelow Motel, Green River, Utah

: Green River, UT. Sep. 9, 2017

Bigelow Motel was located at the center of Green River, Utah on 410 W Main St (US Hwy 50 & 6).

According to Utah Division of State History (UDSH), this ranch style commercial structure was built in 1960[1].

William Levon(1912 – 1991) and Sylvia Levern(1915 – 2000) Bigelow owned and managed the hotel/motel for decades[2,3]. The name of the business changed from Bigelow Hotel to Bigelow Motel, and to Castle Country Motel.

Unfortunately, it is no longer in business today. Notice the letters BIGELOWs painted on the roof of only four units structure.
