Oh, awesome! I had totally forgotten about this one.
This blog rocks....
Whoa, I think I stayed there. A few decades after construction. It had another name, didn't smell so good, the appliances were elderly, and that pool had been filled in to make a playground grotto, but I think it's the same place.
Oh, I hope so!
That opportunity is however no longer open. Google Maps and Street View reveal that nothing doth remain, but doth suffer a sea change into something rich and a bit garish. But we could try calling EXbrook 3-0331 and seeing who picks up.
For best results, you have to pick up the phone and say "Operator, get me EXbrook three, zero three thirty one!"
Recommended by Duncan Hines? But, isn't that, like, a cake mix company?
Mrs.: I was kind of wondering about that too. Aviatrix, do you remember the Doric having good cake?
