Animal Crackers/Merlins/Golden Galleon
The building known as all of the above at one time or another is in the process of getting pulled down. Plan is to replace it with more parking lots to service a planned intermodal transportation center, which at least is better than the state of the demolished Tuscan Lodge and Southern Illinois Recycling buildings, which are only grassy lots looking for a buyer.

It was called the Golden Gauntlet not the Golden Galleon. I spent many very fun nights there when the strip was a alive and well.
