Dinner with Friends
Share your memories of this site.
First of all, I want to express my deep sadness to read that this building is being destroyed. It's been an important part of our skyline for many years and I find it difficult to believe it couldn't have been preserved over the years.
My story is shortly after graduating colleges and marrying in 1972-73?? friends from Chicago came for a visit. To be fancy we decided to go to the top for dinner with a view. At the end we were all feeling very successful and grown up in that we were able to go out for a fancy dinner and spend $125 for the four of us to dine out. Yes--that's the price for four. It was a wonderful experience and I hate to see the building disappear.
