The diner's popularity predominated between the 1940s and 1960s until national fast food and chain establishments prevailed in the 1970s. The Silk City Diner #4655 possesses significant stylistic changes that took place in the post World War II diner industry. The design of the Silk City Diner #4655, manufactured in 1946, is a composite of earlier lunch car features, Moderne stylistic influences, railroad dining car design details, and postwar innovations. The nominated resource meets Criterion Consideration B because of its architectural significance (see page 7) Diner History Diners have a history that can be traced back to the horse drawn food carts of industrial New England. business. This enterprise initiated by Walter Scott began in Providence, Rhode Island in the 1870s and quickly spread to other New England states.
In the 1880s Sam Jones of Worcester, MA used wagons specifically designed for food trade, which included enough space to accommodate a few customers at stools inside the wagon. The concept was so successful that by 1900 there were two manufacturers focused solely on making lunch wagons. Because the primary clientele of a diner was the factory laborer, diners became synonymous with the working man. the very wealthy dined out in expensive restaurants or the working class (particularly men) in diner type establishments on their way to or from their industrial jobs. The middle class did not have the money to spend on expensive restaurants and diners had such a negative association with the rough urban laborers that they were deemed unrespectable, especially for women and children.

Diner habits had changed and by the 1950s dining out was considered a recreational activity for the whole As people moved further from the central city and into the new suburban developments, diner owners followed them. This gave rise to a second phase in diner history, centered around the automobile.
Although diners had been located along highways (in addition to factory sites) to serve truck drivers in centers, well-heeled residential neighborhoods, seaside resorts, and small college towns." (Hurley, p. 43) Diners became a prominent feature on the commercial strip with colorful neon signs that caught the attention of commuters and vacationers, along with the long faithful truckers. "As a practical matter, diners that did business along busy thoroughfares had to make adjustments to accommodate patrons who traveled by automobile, necessitating at the very least the provision of parking space. Through the 1940s, a great many diner owners placed their units flush against the sidewalk, anticipating that most customers would arrive by foot. By the 1950s, diners often resembled late 1960s.
The rise of chain fast food restaurants and coffee shop restaurants, like Denny's, surpassed the popularity that diners had had on the moderately priced restaurant market. By the 1970s the diner manufacturers were largely out of business. Diner Manufacturers Once the financial success of lunch wagons was proven, manufacturers were quick to design portable food carts and devote their business exclusively to their construction.

They began as wagon builders in the nineteenth century, but are not known to have made any lunch wagons. Eventually, they made automobile, bus, and truck bodies, and started making Brooks Cooper, one of five sons involved in the business, was vice president in charge of design and production for the diner division. Silk City Diners were built as standard production units, six or eight at a time, in different color schemes.
Because they were not custom-built, a Silk City was the lowest priced diner you could get, and the company advertised that fact" (Gutman, p.239) (Attachments C-E) As with the vehicle bodies they manufactured, the company also used an arc-welded steel system for insulated to protect from lightening strikes. The Paterson Vehicle Company produced Silk City Diners from 1927-1964. (Attachments F-I) Two diner manufacturers have been identified in Ohio. The dining car division of J.G. Brill Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania began building monitor roof diners in 1927 at its subsidiary plant, G.C. Kuhlman Car Co. in Cleveland, Ohio (and also at a subsidiary in Springfield, Massachusetts).

Some go even further and give it an artistic classification. "The diner is a good example of the defined by diner historians, "a true 'diner' is a prefabricated structure built at an assembly site and transported to a permanent location for installation to serve prepared food." (dinermuseum.org) An additional definition concludes that a diner is a restaurant in the shape of a railroad car with the word diner being derivative of dining car. (Webster's Dictionary) "About twelve companies manufactured and sold prefabricated diners during the late 1940s.
While each company advertised its own distinct model, the diners produced in these years exhibited a remarkable Invariably, the interior layout featured a long counter accompanied by a row of densely packed stools, although most models also included several booths or tables lined against the front wall or packed tightly on one end. To expedite service, manufacturers placed cooking facilities directly behind the counter...As far as building materials were concerned, manufacturers favored stainless steel for both with monitor, narrow width, small windows and fluted side wall treatment. Many other diner types had flatter roofs, boxier forms and different interpretive associations with vehicular design." (Bonafide, p. 8, Early diners, ones manufactured after the lunch cart era, resembled railroad dining cars. Often abandoned streetcar trolleys were converted to diners.
This transient, mobile architectural association with diners remained a constant throughout much of the history of diner design. Diners were either constructed whole and moved to their location or were prefabricated panels designed for quick assembly on site. from the diner into a separate addition of wood or concrete block, normally built on site. Stylistic designs for diners can be classified into three basic eras: (8-86) Patterson Vehicle Company's previous experience.Distinguishing characteristics are a rounded roof and construction materials.The most significant change in floor plan was the removal of the kitchen building asa sign;itisboth a sculptural symbol and an architectural shelter."(arcspace.com)Strictly degree of similarity....The standard diner measured forty feet by sixteen feet, and many were even tinier. As with any architectural style, diner designs evolved.

As with trains, automobiles and airplanes, diners took on the streamlined look that was a reflection of the new machine age.
Moderne features included linear and symmetrical streamlined exterior, rounded hipped roofline with monitor (sans and steel clad doors with elliptical window, and sleek exterior materials of porcelain enameled steel and stainless steel. Booths became common features, less wood was used as trim, with metal taking its place, and the use of neon signs as advertisement are some of the other stylistic changes typically seen during this period. 1945-1960 (Moderne/Stainless Steel): In the later ensuing stylistic changes, the predominance of porcelain enameled steel became a predominance of stainless steel, and wood trim was replaced by more and more stainless steel, chrome, tile and formica. Other characteristics include Art Deco motifs in tile and woodwork, glass block, fixed transoms, larger plate glass windows, clocks above doorways and mirrors.
The monitor roof gives way to a flat roof by the 50s, cornices are more decorative, grill areas are more elaborate/equipped, and cove lighting is in the ceiling. Stand-alone signage is more decorative. Curved corners, and sometimes walls, were more common. An important change in plan occurred during this phase of development. Kitchens increasingly were located in a rear addition to the prefabricated diner with only a grill and minimal food service production remaining behind the counter in view of the customer. 1955-1965 (Jet Age Modern Design): During this period of design the diner began to look more reserved for trim while exteriors were comprised of masonry or color panel veneers. In addition to the above stylistic periods, diner historian Michael Witzel identified four basic design categories that were perfected by the Fodero Company.
Several diner manufacturers emulated Fodero's classifications typified by the Fodero line, both before and after World War II" (Witzel, p.74-75). The Silk City Diner #4655 model is representative of the first generation of Silk City Diners. This style of p.156-157).

Its original location and ownership is not known. 1959. The Siclianos placed the diner in Greenville, Orange County, New York in the Hudson Valley B) The gift shop burned in 1991 causing only smoke damage to the diner, after which the diner closed at the Greenville location.
It had been in operation at this location for 32 years. In 1993 the diner was purchased and moved to Alpena, Michigan where the owner intended to restore it. This effort was not completed however, and in 2002, the Silk City Diner #4655 was salvaged from a field in Michigan and moved to Sabina, Ohio where it was rehabilitated and put into use again. (Photos A, B, C). Architecturally the Silk City Diner #4655 exemplifies the typical Silk City Diner. "There were reflected in the overall scale of the building and its interior appointments. Generally, the Silk City Diners, following a railroad dining car model, were sheathed in stainless steel. Corners were rounded and flat surfaces were fluted to emphasize the horizontal dimension. Windows were aligned high on the long façade to enhance the vehicular look.
On the interior, all surfaces were easily washable including tile floors, tile wainscotting, enameled ceiling panels and stainless steel equipment and wall panels behind the counter, all adding to the aesthetic of efficiency." (Bonafide, p. 8, 5) With respect to general diner history, the Silk City Diner #4655 reflects the trend toward the post World War II automobile culture. It was located on a U.S. route and catered to vacationers. Although it has been moved, it is situated in a compatible location, again on a U.S. route. The siting on the lot with a large parking area also reflects the later history of diners that focused on travelers, rather than urban industrial workers walking to work. In addition to the Silk City Diner #4655, forty other diners have been documented in Ohio (See Attachment J). They are located in all areas of the state.
These diners range in date from the 1920s to 1958 (modified in 1966). None are individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places. One, The Diner on Sycamore, is a 1954 Mountain View diner moved from Massillon in 1984.
