Restaurant, shoreline setting, storm recovery, and documented afterlife. Cleared photographs date to May 29, 2017, after closure. A verified, reuse-cleared photograph of an actual Chick’s car meet has not been located; these empty-lot views must never be captioned as a car meet.

Includes selected original images, full acquired OCR, source catalog, credits and a SQLite FTS5 database. Complete repository PDFs and modern external articles are linked, not included. Coverage and missing records are described in each collection’s scope and individual item notes.

RESEARCH DATABASE
items stores the catalog; search_fts indexes source text. Example: SELECT id,title FROM search_fts WHERE search_fts MATCH 'history';
