The building has not been a Taco Bell restaurant for a long time and was closed since 2014. The Downey location is no longer in the greatest of neighborhoods.
In Irvine it won’t be vandalized and will be restored to 1960s condition.

Even to continue with Taco Bell, it is time to replace the structure after so long.
SoCal is covered with shopping centers from the 50s, 60s and 70s which are worn out, functionally obsolete, etc.
Give Taco Bell credit, for preserving the iconic building and moving it to the Corporate Hq. site. They have preserved history, not destroyed it.
