This one’s for all you lovers of vintage furniture and lighting. It’s a photograph showing the lounge area of The Hearthstone retirement community on Green Lake in the mid 1960′s. The building began construction in 1964 and opened to retired residents in 1966. Here’s a link to the building today — Google doesn’t let you go in the building… yet. Click for higher-res.
