Landmark Lanes celebrates 95 years

Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson proclaimed Sept. 26 as "Landmark Lanes Day" in celebration of the business' 95th anniversary. Landmark Lanes, a staple of Milwaukee's East Side, first opened in 1927 as Bensinger's Recreation in the historic Oriental Theater complex. According to the mayor's proclamation, the 24,000-square-foot retro arcade has three bars, darts, foosball tables, a live music stage, regular karaoke nights, and of course, bowling.
