Howey's 5120 Broadway at Winona


Neither one of these images of 5120 Broadway show the building as it is today. The first one shows it as a single story! The second one, circa 1983, shows a tower quite different from what is seen now:
Today, the building houses the South-East Asia Center. I have to admit, a small part of me wishes that the building still served as an entertainment destination. It would make a fabulous beer garden today, wouldn't it?

This is one building I wish had remained a restaurant!

I concur on this completely. I vote at this location every election day and I have to stop and look around and imagine what it must have been like back in the days when it was a happening hotspot. I agree, that patio would be amazing.
