Norms, Plate 3

From wikipedia: Norms Restaurants is a chain of diner-style restaurants in Southern California. The chain was founded in 1949 and its restaurants are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They advertise their hours with the line "We never close." There are currently 17 locations in Los Angeles, Orange and Riverside counties.

 

The first Norms opened on La Cienega Boulevard in 1957 featuring a distinctive angular and brightly colored style that came to be known as Googie architecture.[1] Key characteristics include concrete walls, large glass windows, jutting roof, and a neon marquee.[1] The first Norms restaurant was designed by the firm of Armet & Davis.
