Description

Original building, 1964 - 2009

The Landmark Diner originally opened in 1964 in a single-story building.[1][2][3][4] This structure housed the Landmark until 2009, when the current building opened. This move was made for a number of reasons, including the existing dining space.[1] Additionally, a new septic system was needed, and the original property could not accommodate the upgrades.[1]

After the current building opened, the original lot, located at 1023 Northern Boulevard, was rebuilt as a furniture store.[3][5]

Current building, 2009 - present

The current, double-decker building opened in 2009 at 1027 Northern Boulevard, 120 feet (37 m) east of the original structure, making it the first prefabricated double-deck diner in the United States.[1][6] The entrance features a foyer whose centerpiece is a glass elevator.[1][2] There are dining rooms on both the first and second floors, and the second floor's dining areas are visible from the first floor's dining areas.[1][7] The upstairs also features a central bar and a private party room.[7]
