By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/bank-vault-from-the-20s-turned-into-a-stylish-restaurant.htmlA few years ago, a former bank vault in Chicago was converted into a club-restaurant. Since the building was built in the 20s of the last century, the interior of the institution beat the existing historical and modern styles. The walls of the club-restaurant consist of more than 6,000 bank cells, and to get into the institution, you need to go through an armored door and bars. Dress code - club style or cocktail wear, instead of deposits and loans - food and drinks.

3. Now you can dine in an unusual setting - around huge steel hatches, a couple of meters thick, powerful locks, a complex system of valves.
4. The restaurant was named "The Bedford", candlesticks and modern furniture were installed in the premises, but the main surroundings remained unchanged.
