These panoramic vistas show that while the place was still a Howard Johnson's it must have enjoyed a brief revival when the more modern two-story guest building was added in the front of the property--likely in the late 1960s or very early 1970s.
 
 
 
 

 
 

 The Texaco station seen above in the right of the photo is on the site of where the Restaurant had once been. By 2003 no trace of the Howard Johnson's remained. Furthermore the area has been completely redeveloped and little of anything there remains from the Golden Era of the American Roadside.
