The last Howard Johnson's (by Howard Johnson) - BBC News

The Howard Johnson's restaurant chain was king of the road in the 1960s and 70s. But now there's only one left, in New York state. The BBC's Howard Johnson (no, we're not kidding) went along to find out what went wrong. Note: The name of the restaurant chain is Howard Johnson's, and the name of the hotel chain is Howard Johnson (without the 's). Two separate businesses.
