<Tr> <Th> Operated by </Th> <Td> Standin' on the Corner in Winslow, Arizona Park Committee </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Status </Th> <Td> Open all year </Td> </Tr> <P> Standin' on the Corner Park (opened in 1999 in Winslow, Arizona). It is a public park, commemorating the song "Take It Easy" which was written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey and, most famously, recorded by the Eagles . The song includes the verse "Well, I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona and such a fine sight to see . It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me ." The park contains a two - story trompe - l'œil mural by John Pugh, and a bronze statue by Ron Adamson of a life - sized man who is standing on a corner with a guitar by his side . The park is surrounded by a wall of bricks, with windows to peer into; each brick has a donor's name on it, and a story by each of the donors describing their fondness for Winslow, Arizona . </P> <P> Until the 1960s, Winslow was a thriving town in northern Arizona just off Route 66 . Construction of the $7.7 million bypass around Winslow began soon after 1977 . When I - 40 bypassed the community many local businesses disappeared, the tourism sector being among the hardest hit . While some local jobs remained (as Winslow is the base of operation for one thousand railroad workers), the local downtown was badly hurt by the influx of national chains (such as Walmart and McDonald's) along the new interstate highway to the north of the town . Twenty years passed and Winslow was stuck in a commercial rut . </P>
