Houston-Bellaire, Texas -- 4201 Bellaire
 
This was the first Howard Johnson's Restaurant in the Houston area. It opened in late 1950 or early 1951, and was one of the first three locations in Texas. The Restaurant ceased being a HoJo's during the final months of 1971, and eventually became Moeller's Bakery.
