The Sinclair Service Station in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at 3501 E. 11th St., was built in 1929. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1]

The station is located on the original U.S. Route 66 (11th St.). Its NRHP nomination asserts it "is an excellent example of a Spanish Eclectic service station. The station consists of three parts; the office, the covered gas pump area, and an attached double-bay service garage. A stucco exterior, a triangular parapet, and the tile, visor roof are all characteristics commonly associated with the architectural style."[2]

Its listing was consistent with a study of historic resources on Route 66 in Oklahoma.[3]
