Yeah, but could you get a decent Orange Julius? Well, no, definitely not, since the OJ franchise originated in Los Angeles in 1926.

My Mom was a waitress, then hostess, in the Main Dining Room from 1928 to 1953.

Late 50's, early 60's, I spent much time exploring all over the place.

Still bugs me what happened to it.

I'm 68, and I don't think there are many people younger that got to roam around Penn Station.

It bugs me and I wish I had been around to explore it but was just a babe when it was demolished.

How soon after (or maybe even before...) the infamous date of 10/28/63 were the restaurant and cafeteria closed?

I think my Mom packed it in around May 1963.

Went across 33rd St to be a hostess at P J Moriarty's joint at 225 W 33rd St.
