Located roughly 25km south of San Francisco in Burlingame California, this small building was originally used as a ticket booth and waiting area for the greyhound bus line. Burlingame, which was initially settled as a destination for the second homes of wealthy San Franciscans, was later surrounded by urban growth. As the density between the cities increased, the particular bus route was canceled out as more efficient public transportation was introduced. Positioned on a small intersection island, the small structure was saved and converted into a now popular and original Italian sandwich shop. With standing space for about 5 people inside and most of the seating outside the building, it is one of the smallest and most delightful enclosed restaurants I have experienced, and a good example of a successful building re-use
