A Wurlitzer theater organ opus 1611 style “F” was installed in the Poplar Theater on 4/9/1927. Status: sold.
I think this would be around Sixth and Race, if my memory serves me well so many years later. Isn’t that where they built that large freeway extension about twenty years ago? I wonder if anything is left on this block.
It is/was on North Sixth and Poplar. I don’t have much faith in Google maps, but the satellite view shows a large building which could be the warehouse mentioned above.
