The Emporium department store had a publicly accessible area on the roof on the western side of the dome. From the top sales floor, one could climb four or five steps to a door that opened onto an open area that was carpeted with green astro-turf. For many years Santa Claus held court there at Christmas time and there was a ferris wheel and other rides. The Emporium's huge, glass dome was visible at the eastern side of the rooftop space. On the occasions that I was there, the rides had been removed and the space was empty except for some picnic tables and a real cable car that had been hoisted up from Stephenson Alley! You could climb onto the cable car and, I suppose that several generations of Santa's visitors and Emporium employees had their lunches there as I did, on several occasions. I wonder what happened to the cable car?'''
