Carmel is fiercely protective of its charm, but the sale and potential rebranding of its only remaining gas station is testing the limits of this preservationist ethos.
Mario Andretti's Shell station in downtown Carmel is not just a gas station; it's an iconic landmark cherished by residents and visitors, representing the town's unique character.
The rebranding of Andretti's Shell station to a Chevron has sparked significant concern among residents, with city council members questioning the impact on the town's aesthetics and identity.
The city of Carmel has always prioritized its uniqueness, and the proposed changes to the Shell station have ignited a broader discussion on how to balance commercial interests with community values.
