Talk:Pekin Noodle Parlor

To do

 * More than 300,000 Chinese fled Guangzhou for the US sometime between the First Opium War in 1839, the Second Battle of Canton, the Red Turban Rebellion (1854–1856), and a series of clan wars waged by the Punti and Hakka from 1855 to 1867 in which one million people died. Tam’s family was part of this exodus.


 * Proximity to red-light district. Rumors of use as a brothel unsubstantiated except for poor sources.  Connection to prohibition. Underground tunnels for steam heating.


 * Clubs, organizations, and businesses in the building. Gambling.
