Didn't that Perkins get hit by a tornado in the 1960s?

The 1969 tornado caused some of its worst damage close by the Perkins which was then on Reading Rd opposite the Carrousel Inn. Among the hardest-hit businesses were two other restaurants - the Upper Krust just a block or two up the street, and McIntosh's on Galbraith Rd nearby. But I think the "pancake house" itself got through more or less unscathed. That's not to say people inside weren't majorly freaking out and racing for shelter; it was "hit" in that sense. After doing a number on the Lakeshore Drive apartments along Galbraith not too far east of there, however, that twister had wrought most of its mayhem. The worst it did farther distant from southern Reading was bring down some tree branches in Deer Park. Silverton (the subject of this thread) probably survived completely intact.
