Does anyone remember where the old Greyhound bus terminal was? I remember driving past it along Okeechobee Road, and it seems to me there was a gas station and diner there. Is this the place?

My mother and father were the original operators of this restaurant. It was opened in February of 1955. The blonde lady may be Florance "Duchess" Griese but the photo is too small to tell. As a 9 year old I hung out in the kitchen, washed dishes, learned to make fountain drinks, and cook hamburgers. For a short time we lived in the motel accross the parking lot. I remember the guys that ran the Pure Gas Station. One was named Pat but I don't remember the other fellow. This phot must have been taken in 1955.
