Closed
by 2002, Carrier Circle was still largely intact--its rooftop
sign frame which once held "Howard Johnson's" even
remained in place. |

Even though the
location had been reportedly sold in 2002, it remained abandoned
by Jack's 2005 visit.
Stripped
of its balcony railings by 2005, the guest buildings looked
to in preparation for demolition. |

Sadly
indicators are that Carrier Circle will not be remodeled or
reused as a motel and restaurant, rather it is more likely to
be demolished, for its rate of deterioration quickens with the
passage of time. |

A
reminder of better days for Carrier Circle, most of its sliders
still had Sunburst Scotchcals (HJ5043) affixed so that guests
would not try to walk through the glass. |
