Just a half-mile walk up the hill from the Aquarium and Inner Harbor in Baltimore (and about the same distance east of the excellent Lexington Market) sits a 1954 Mountain View known as the Hollywood. Like many sixty-year-olds, it's had a checkered past. Purchased at auction in 1981 by director Barry Levinson and used (most famously in 1982's
Diner, 1987's
Tin Men, 1993's
Sleepless in Seattle, and a few more) for diner interiors, it went out of business some years after we visited it in 2004, came back to life again in the spring of 2011, and went out again this very September.
Great tin! (Actually stainless steel.)
When you're holding the camera at arms-length or setting it on a window ledge, you sometimes have to take a couple of shots to get it right.
Say "Pepsi, Please".
