yes tattodjay that is one grand building, the current use as a restaurant and bar is perfect for the location! really nice photos!
@janton Thanks and I think it must be a really nice restaurant with great views
yes JJ, I love to eat at places like that, I'm sure you guys do things like that quite a bit, nice restaurants with great views?
With my wife’s health issues she has a very limited diet so we seldom eat out these days
Couldn't have a better location. :-)
