Bel Loc Diner
According to an article in the Baltimore Magazine the Bel Loc Diner opened on this corner in 1964. It's name comes from the Baltimore Beltway, I-695, which the diner sits just off of and Loch Raven Boulevard that passes by the place. Unfortunately I didn't get to eat at the place; it closes at 3 P.M. on Sundays and I missed it by about an hour. I doubt if I could have eaten another thing because I had just filled up at Gino's just up the street but I would have had a cup of coffee and some of the rice pudding that they are known for had they been open. Anyway, I've not been able to find anything about the manufacturer but I love the googie style roof line.
