The Astoria Ballroom was sited where the Garage club is now, at 490 Sauchiehall St. My dad (born 1929) remembers going to the Astoria for his dinner before night classes, as they also had a restaurant. He described going inside and immediately up a flight of steps, which I understand is the current setup for the Garage.
If anyone has any pics of the frontage or interior of the Astoria, I'd be interested to see them, as I am researching the original venue on that site, Charing Cross Halls, in the early 20thC in another thread.
