History
Winslow was named for either Edward F. Winslow, president of St. Louis–San Francisco Railway, which owned half of the old Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, or Tom Winslow, a prospector who lived in the area.
The Harvey House, designed by Mary Colter, opened in 1930; It closed in 1957, and—early in the 1960s—the Santa Fe Railway gutted much of it, transforming it into its offices. The railroad abandoned the property in 1994 and announced plans to tear it down. However, it was bought and restored by Allan Affeldt, and now is known as the La Posada Hotel.
U.S. Route 66 originally passed through the city. A contract to build Interstate 40 as a bypass north of Winslow was awarded at the end of 1977.
