Roanoke
Rapids-Weldon, NC
-- 1606 Julian Allsbrook Hwy. |

While
no trace of Weldon's restaurant/highway stop remained by the
later 2000s, its motor lodge was still functional as the Interstate
Inns and RV Park. The motor lodge was a typical unit offering
100 standard guest rooms all with color TV and was likely
built in the middle 1960s. It's site at the intersection of
I-95 and U.S. 301 & 158 proved to be excellent, for a
host of roadside businesses serving travelers sprang up at
the interchange. After its days as a Horne's and prior to
adopting the Interstate Inns name, the complex was listed
as a Best Western. |
