Was this not the garage for the Illinois Bell Telephone company? I remember riding the car elevator with my dad up to where the phone company cars were worked on. This really looks like that building.
Yes that was IL Bells garage. I worked there from ’76 to ’78. From what I understand it was also a car dealership and a popular music venue in the ’60s for psychedelic degenerate bands like the Signets and Reindeer Army. I believe it was called the Pavillion Club. If you see any of the people from those bands tell them practice is at my house on sunday.byob.
