One one hand, especially since there are so few untouched Norge balls remaining outside of museums, it is sad to know that this business appears to have closed about three years ago. On the other hand, judging by the online reviews that remain available, the service became so bad that it’s amazing it held on as long as it did.

It is currently impossible to see this building on Google Maps Street View. However, in the satellite view supposedly taken in 2022, both the ball and the accompanying Norge sign remain up. If they are indeed still there, one has to wonder for how much longer.

In case they don’t come up in the Related section below (as I never know what will show up down there if anything as it is auto-generated), here is an older post I made that also show’s this location’s full sign plus another of a Norge ball that still lives on in Long Beach.
