Before Foster's Restaurant, there was a Howard Johnson's in that location. Previously it had been called Dutchland (established in the mid to late 1930's.) Dutchland was probably the first to offer car hop service in the area and waitresses were dressed in traditional Dutch attire. The Howard Johnson's was moved to the Weirs in the late 1940's and burned several years thereafter.
