Winner, Most Unusual Converted Denny's
You can always tell a former Denny's by the shape of the diner -- but even more obviously, by the shape of the sign. Most old Denny's are sold to new diner owners, who stick their name on the sign (think Twain's in Burbank) but otherwise keep the greasy spoon nature of the building.
(It's not just old Denny's -- I still remember riding the red line 'L' in Chicago and passing by Loyola University, where an old IHOP was converted into the school's Fine Arts building. Seriously.)
Then there's Ebenezer church (above), near MacArthur Park. Sorry, no "Moons Over My Hammy" here. (And are they "always open"?)
