The former Denny's in Ballard has been the center of a recent debate. Tear down the old structure or preserve it as a historic landmark? While it might not look like much to the casual observer, the old building with a swooping roof line is an example of "Googie" architecture. The Landmarks Preservation Board managed to designate the building as a city landmark back in February. However, a recent recommendation from the city will likely pave the way for developers to demolish the existing structure in order to build an 8-story mixed use property.
