As oil production and refining increased, prices collapsed, which became characteristic of the industry. The first oil corporation, which was created to develop oil found floating on water near Titusville, Pennsylvania, was the Pennsylvania Rock Oil Company of Connecticut (later the Seneca Oil Company).
One of the first gas stations was owned by John McLean, who opened a location in Seattle for Standard Oil of California in 1907. Where the FIRST gas station actually appeared is in dispute. Over the next several years, improvements were made that further advanced the gas station toward what we know today.
