howdy calvojoe, welcome aboard btw,
i have the dirt on that place, and have intended on posting it to Locating Tiki for some time now, but have not yet done so.

that is the site of the st. louis trader vic's, which my research also suggests is potentially the birthplace of "crab rangoon" (but this is disputed).

i have two postcards of the site as well as an original matchbook. another postcard view(s) can be found at
