This is the first paper I've seen on this place - it was around for so long, but it feels like it never existed based on the material you can find on it. Very cool.

The Kon Tiki closed in 1980 or 1981. The space is now conference rooms and the "business center" for hotel guests. This picture showed up on lostoregon.org.
