NotesThis early 1970s A&W Root Beer became several other restaurants in the 1980s and 1990s, then was converted to a TitleMax in 2012. In 1984, as Imperial Palace, the restaurant owners built the first of several additions around the building ultimately almost doubling its size. Around 1990, Imperial Palace became Mandarin House, and in 2012 Titlemax renovated it and opened.
