We interrupt this week's trivia question for a musical interlude

This week in 1940 the Glenn Miller Orchestra released this signature song. Can you give me the name and location of this landmark that has this famous phone number to this day. If you can drop me a message.
If you don’t know the answer off your head and/or want a research ‘project’ to work on for the rest of the week might I recommend using a library database like Proquest Newsstand Complete? You can search individual publication titles like the New York Times (hint, hint) for this or any news item.
Last week’s question was basically a two parter. First you had to know that Manfred von Richthofen was none other than the infamous Red Baron. Then you could have gone the serious route to look up the names of valiant British flyers who engaged him in battle….or….you could have remembered the name of the most famous WW I flying ace… Snoopy! I suggest going the second route because that is who I had in mind. These campus military experts got at least part of the answer correct –
