The site in which the theatre resided has been cleared for some years and the status should be changed to demolished.

It actually closed in 1957.

Hey,Mr.M,great article.The writer really brought the places alive for the reader,especially those old enough to remember and care about a lost world.I remember being “dumped"into the "kiddie matinee” world many times while my mother shopped.The article brought back to mind how much the movie goer-and everyone-owes John Gorri,the inventor of AC.My father went to a jr.high in Jacksonville named after him.
