I ran across quite a few diner photos which I haven’t published- I’m going to try to work my way through them over the next couple of months.
I visited the Ace in 2006 with my father and Randy Garbin, of Roadside fame.
The diner is an extensively remodeled Silk City. One listing I have for it says it was built c. 1938, the other that it is from the ’40s.
Though it was remodeled extensively, which outwardly conceals its true nature, inside it is all diner.
The fresh baked bread at the Ace would alone be worth the stop.

Wow, you certainly would not know how cool that diner is just by looking at the outside, good work boys! You say you were there in 06, I’m hoping it’s still as cool inside…!
