v Dinner in a dance studio? Proposal could put new restaurant on Main St the town suddenly builds three or four dance halls, he said. Finally, the Record asked him how he will work with the city council on the project. MacQuoid indicated that his wife Ann, a council member, will abstain from voting on it, and joked, "I may have been better off bringing this to city council a year ago. Now, I've lost a vote." be located on either side, running the length of the room from the stage, on the west end, to the balcony on the east side. The rooms on the north side, which were formerly judicial chambers, will be converted to private dining or party rooms. But they also connect to the main floor through french doors. The south side of the building will be converted into a restaurant. The present kitchen facilities will be upgraded and the dance room will be changed. The atmosphere, said MacQuoid, will be something like a soda shop of the '40s era. The land to the south, to be landscaped for a mini-park, will also be used for dining. In recent years, MacQuoid said, the city has somewhat neglected the historic aspect of the building. It was built in 1939 as a memorial to World War I and Spanish-American War veterans. Under his plans, placques and memorabilia would be restored and highlighted. A history room and senior citizens reception center would be in the northeast room of the building now used for meetings of the Womans Athenaeum. It would be operated by the senior citizens, he said. A memorial room may be built from the present Recreation Department office. Or that space may be used for a gift shop. The bottom floor would house a 12-lane automatic bowling alley on the bottom floor. In MacQuoid's plan, this lower level would also include a cocktail lounge with large-screen large-screen TV, and possibly a game room with coin-operated machines from the Forties. The construction here is a question mark, however. MacQuoid said he did not know what the costs would be to knock out the basement walls and excavate into an existing crawl space. The Record asked MacQuoid how he would attract customers to the bowling alley, given that the city only now uses a small four-lane alley in the basement. He said the small alley is used actively at the present, and even then it is known to very few people in town. "I didn't know it existed until last year," he said. Unlike the old alley, the new 12-lane 12-lane would have a bright spacious setting. He also plans to hire an operator who would bring league play to the alley. MacQuoid acknowledged that the building the center is one thing, and promoting it is another job. "Obviously we will have to do a selling job," he said. But the project can work unless The war Memorial Building on Park City's historic Main Street could be the home for a restaurant, a night club and a 12-lane bowling alley, under a plan proposed by Park City developer Malcolm "Mac" MacQuoid. His plan, to buy or lease the building from the city for an entertainment center, will be presented to the Park City Council at a work session today, Jan. 23. MacQuoid also told the Record he is interested in preserving the historic flavor of the building. The interior decor of the commercial center would be reminiscent of the '40s, he said. In addition, there would be a senior citizens reception -center and space provided for historic memorabilia. The developer said he did not want to proceed with the project until he was confident the community supported it. He presented his plan to a Jan. 8 meeting of the city's recreation advisory committee. City Recreation Director Steve Haugen said the item was only scheduled for discussion, but the committee members who were present unanimously recommended the project. MacQuoid also said he was not interested in using the land minus the building. He suggested the city use funds from selling or leasing the building to help finance the renovation of the Carl Winters Middle School property, which the city recently acquired. That location would also be a more appropriate location for the recreation offices, now in the Memorial Building. But plans should be firmly set, he said. "We can't displace the Recreation Department until they know they have a home down the street." The new features in the building would include the following : The gymnasium would be turned into a restaurant and nightclub, with the largest dance floor in Park City. Mezzanines would
