Just a quirky example of novelty architecture? The Teacup Dome gas station is an anything but kitsch reminder of a nasty scandal, declared the ‘high water mark of cabinet corruption’.

When architect Jack Ainsworth designed a petrol station as a teapot with a handle and spout in 1922 he wasn’t just nodding to a rock formation, a ‘geological structural uplift’ to be precise described before its erosion as having a ‘handle’ and ‘spout’, located close to important navel oil reserves in Teapot Dome, Wyoming. He was reminding everyone of its connection to a criminal trial and Senate investigation that gripped the nation and said to be of the magnitude of the Watergate scandal.

It saw Albert Fall, the Interior Secretary of President Warren G Harding’s administration sent to prison after awarding two of his friends leases to extract oil from Teapot Dome oil fields which held crucial naval oil reserves (alongside a bunch of other sites), and brought the Harding government down.

Today the teapot sits protected in the Memorial Park of the City of Zillah, Washington, after taking a bashing and caving in after being hit by car in the 1970s. It’s now restored and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
