Here's the Lobster House by day in 1960.  Consider how much the  Southbank has changed since then.  The field to the right of the restaurant, for instance, is now in the vicinity of Friendship Fountain, with its tall plumes of water.  Unfortunately, the Lobster House burned in a Christmas season fire in 1962.
