you're right,- almost only the Starbucks store was open on ground floor. 
I remember this because I slendered around and thought why on the earth 
people are willing to pay three to five Dollars (=work up to an hour) 
just for a cup of coffee ...

I believe that all organizers of the 56th did hope or expect that all 
present people would attend the buffet & show event which was running 
from 5 pm till 8:30 pm.
