old roadside picturesburger king, springfield, ohio, 1980
14mission@oldroadside I suspect this building of hiding an interesting history. Maybe an #interurban station?
@oldroadside This local "Burger King" predated the chain, and kept the chain out of Springfield, OH, for a while.
The address is 514 S. Limestone St, "Near South High School".

Stu Duerson, machina exo deusThanks! Obviously a name conflict with the corporation. Early '70's, and the franchises were already the steel and glass we'd expect, and I was hooked on 'fame-broiled' Whoppers.
