Giant Milk Bottle

A roughly 90-year-old giant milk bottle on top of a diner. It's particularly random/funny because it's on top of a place known for hot dogs, not milk or dairy. But in the 1930s it was an ice cream shop. The restaurant is seasonal and not open in the winter. The bottle, however, can be viewed year 'round.
