"McDonald?s introduced the new Mansard Roof Design in 1969 in Matteson, Illinois. Initially, many franchisees remodeled their existing Red and White buildings to reflect the new design. McDonaldland Parks (Play Places) and the Drive-Thru were added to the restaurant during the 1970s. The Mansard?s exterior underwent several changes during the intervening years."
I only bring this up because 3 weeks ago I roasted my sister in law for her 50th birthday....She is a huge McDonalds Fan so I researched their history and did a timeline based around their products/intro dates and important dates in her life....
It was fun and she really got a kick out of, good memories for all..."The way life should be"
