Up until the Clearwater
Motor Lodge was built in 1964, all of the Howard Johnson's Motor
Lodges were franchised units. Clearwater was the first owned
directly by the Howard Johnson Company.
It was located at the
prime intersection of U.S. 19 and SR 60. Highway 60 was the main
drag into Clearwater from Tampa.

The Restaurant
used the seldom-built open ended Nims looking building. Apparently
the place had an A-frame Gate Lodge but I cannot confirm it with
absolute certainty. |
