Perkins #1101, Olathe, 6_wm
Since 1981, I have seen this Perkins location through at least six remodels, I believe.
When I was a college boy, the lights over the tables were cylindrical affairs, about 24-30 inches tall, imbedded with all sorts of wonderful red, orange, and gold glass bits. Ha!
If you had told me then that Santa Fe Ave would one day be less the center of commerce than at that time, I'd have scoffed. But newer centers of commerce, a reduction in cruising by young people, (economy, maybe? Play Station2 maybe?) have made changes. This Perkins is not open 24-7 anymore, just weekends.
