Dieselpunks

Dieselpunk + Steampunk Culture

Yesterday was my last free day before the big move west.. 
so I set out to get a few images of one of my favourite Grand Rapids haunts; The Viceroy.
I can't speak for the hooch, (I'm a teetotaler) 
but the food is great, the staff is friendly, and the ambiance is one of a kind.
I'd been in many times before and the joint was almost always packed. 
(as it should be!)
Yesterday, I was face to face with an empty bar. 
Bad for business. Good for me.








I am really going to miss this place...

A great idea, David.

..adding it to my to do list. Will document what I can in my area.

Yes, I imagine there are quite a few. .

These are really nice photographs, and it looks like a swell place too!

 

It'd be good if we could start a database here of Dieselpunk locations to visit. I'm sure there are lots of great places in London that I haven't heard of.

Much appreciated, Larry.

I agree with Tome. Not only does it look like a great place but really nice photography.

It's an incredible place. I'm sad to admit it.. but I didn't spend nearly as much time there as I'd have liked. 

Hoping I can find an equally swanky crawl in Oregon.

Thank you, Tome.

Lot's more to come!

Not only does that place look amazing, but your photography skills are really excellent.

Have a safe trip during your move!
