On both coasts, there were famous establishments, sometimes used in movies, that have gone under.
In LA, there were Ciro's, The Brown Derby, and the Coconut Grove, among others.
In NYC, there's Luchow's and DelMonico's, not to mention Ebbetts Field and The Polo Grounds.
In fact, it was the demolition of the old Penn Station that led to the establishment of the Landmarks Preservation Committee, that saved Grand Central Terminal (and many other buildings) from suffering the same fate.
I don't know how many of my fellow posters are old enough to remember these places.
Does anyone else know any other establishments that are no longer with us.
And do you miss them?
