The doors to the restrooms were on either side of the spray painted wall. The concessions were where the cinderblock wall is, and video games like Tron, Centipeed, Pac Man, and my favorite, Galaga were where the wood wall was. We had keys to the games, so we could give ourselves free credits and play after we closed.
I was the Asst. Manger there in the mid 80’s. The projectionists were named Roy and Ernie. I can’t recall their last names. Most times Roy had a beer cooler up there. LOL!
The room on the left, on the second floor was the storage room. It mostly had cleaning supplies, and popcorn, and popcorn salt. The room to the right was the poping room. One of our workers grabbed the cleaning power that was in a similar bucket as the popcorn salt and used it to pop corn! Luckily, I grabbed some popcorn before we opened and my mouth started to burn! We had to throw away all of the popcorn, which we stored in large bags and clean out the popper and warmer before we could pop more corn.
I was the Asst. Manager there in the mid 80s. Sorry to see it go, but glad you have some pictures, especially of the “bones”. I remember recovering a lot of those seats. Are they still in storage?

When I was the Asst. Manager there back in the mid 80’s the letters to the Marque and all of the popcorn and drink cups were stored behind the screen.
