                    AKA Kendall |

                  Built 
                      in the Howard Johnson Company's fully realized modern design, 
                      the site was opened in the summer of 1962. 
                    Covering 
                      its bases, the Kendall Howard Johnson's Motor Lodge and 
                      Restaurant complex was sited on U. S. 1 near its intersection 
                      with the Palmetto Expressway on the south side of Miami, 
                      and was Miami's second Howard Johnson's complex.  
                    The 
                      Kendall Restaurant was converted into a Denny's after the 
                      1985 dissolution of the Howard Johnson Company, but the 
                      50 room Motor Lodge retained its HJ name and terrific A-frame 
                      Gate Lodge until the location's closure and subsequent demolition 
                      in about 1999.   |

            The 
                Restaurant continued operating as a Denny's for a period of time 
                following the Motor Lodge's demolition, but then it too was levelled 
                to make way for medical offices.  |
