Hometown History: Sign of the times: Modernaire Motel’s classic marquee to get new life, 5.1
Update: 2025-04-21
Description
Those icons of old American roads - motels, drive-in theaters, bowling alleys and diners - made travel possible and interesting. Today, the Modernaire Motel in Springettsbury Township is among those retro places along the Lincoln Highway that is long closed and facing an uncertain future. Hometown History’s Jame Noerpel and Dominish Marie Miller talk about Lincoln Highway historian Tom Davidson’s project to preserve the Modernaire’s vintage sign as a way to preserve the memory of this old motel that for decades beckoned scores upon scores of motorists to stay overnight.
