I'm thinking of opening a new chain of restaurants called "And No, This Did Not Used To Be A Taco Bell, Thank You."

Hehe, that's great! How about a picture book: And Yes, this did used to a Taco Bell.

After Westminster Abbey, all America could come up with is this?
It's, like, comparing, um, The Queen, with, err, um, eh, Mr Obama II.

Reminds me of a Vietnamese restaurant called "Vina" located here in Minneapolis. The building was once part of the chain of "Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips" shops which you can tell by the oversized signature English lampost in the parking lot.

Sweet.
Reminds me of Lileks's (or is it Lileks'?) journey through The Gobbler...
Re: Leftover Pop Architecture
This post was Lileks inspired for sure.

If memory serves, that particular "Best of Philly" did used to be a Taco Bell. And when did you drop by Phoenix?

Someone alert Lileks! We need to get to the bottom of this.

Empire State Building? Chrysler Building? C'mon.

Here's one in Marina Del Rey, CA. After it was Taco Bell it was a BBQ chicken place, then a sushi place, now it's Thai.
Bonus: Places that used to be iHops. This is right up the street from the Thai place. Now a really good restaurant called A-Frame.

If we all pitch in, we can buy the Chinese Theater and turn it into a Taco Bell.
