Finding former Wawa locations
I’m working on a photography project of documenting former Wawa locations and what they’ve become, and I’m looking for help finding former locations online. Obviously there isn’t a master list online of former locations, but I noticed the ones near me that are gas stations have store numbers that start with 8. Are old store numbers usually retired? If I were to get a list of current store locations, could I just find what numbers are missing and search those up? Really just looking for a better method than aimlessly going up and down commercial corridors on Google Maps or searching “wawa closed” in news articles.
Alternatively, if anyone knows of any former locations off the top of their head in PA/NJ/DE/MD, feel free to shout them out in a comment below. I know of the ones near me in Lower Bucks County fairly well but any suggestions are appreciated.
Attached is a random film photo I took of a former Wawa near me.
