Kreinbring Phillips 66 Gas Station is a Tudor Revival filling station built in 1934 in Lowden, Iowa, alongside U.S. Highway 30 (the former Lincoln Highway). Constructed to the specifications of the Phillips Petroleum Company, the station features a distinctive cottage-style main structure with gas pumps originally positioned on a concrete median in front. The first owner-operator, August L. Kreinbring, created a park-like rest area to the west where highway travelers could pause during their journeys. A service bay annex and storage room were added in 1949 under subsequent ownership. The station operated under various owners and brands until 1998 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
