Howard Johnsons Restaurant (closed 1980–replaced ????)

I became a tad bit interested in the dying Howard Johnsons restaurants when Brian Florence from “http://www.deadmalls.com”>deadmalls.com brought it up in the deadmalls blog. So I went to OrangeRoof.org to find out more, and lo and behold, I had been passing by a closed Howard Johnsons this whole time. (I wrote about it last month)

So last Friday I decided to do a drive-by. (and yes, whenever I see the phrase “drive by” I think of Chester from Sifl & Olly too) Oh, oh man! Check it out:

I sent these photos to the man who runs Orange Roof, Rich and he was kind enough to put them on his site. Yay!
