"Sitting prominently at the busy intersection of Glendale Boulevard, Rowena Avenue, and Fletcher Avenue in Silver Lake, the Googie-style Astro Family Restaurant was designated a historic monument by the LA City Council. Built in 1959 and designed by the same firm behind Norm’s, Denny’s, and Bob’s Big Boy, the building operated as a Conrad’s branch from 1959 to 1974 before operator Peter Metsos turned it into Astro." - Matthew Kang
