The December 27, 1947, issue of Boxoffice Magazine said that the new Crest Theatre would open in 60 days. It was being built for Phil Isley Theatres.

looks like it was demolished very recently. A Grocery store nearby seems to be taking over the lot.

Sorry legs! This is a very old photo before the Crest before the letters were removed and he theater was painted over in a coat of green paint. If if is still standing I don’t think you would like it now.

well im sure you can get it cheap,theres not much going on in the area,there trying to bring it back up,and on the good side,its near the golf course and the DART so i think it would be a good buy.
