Some photos at that Site.

STYLE: ARTS AND CRAFTS

ARCHITECT: F.W. SCHLAGETER

PHONE 209.966.1333

Built early 1900’s.

1st floor was 32X60 with a stage at the rear. In earlier years, it housed the Liberty Dance Hall and a MOVIE THEATER (A TIN-LINED PROJECTION ROOM IS LOCATED ABOVE THE EXTERIOR DOORS ON THE FAR END).

ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE NAME OF THAT THEATER WAS?

The Sixth Street Cinema is on the 2nd floor.

Owned by Rural Media Arts and Education Project, a public cinema.

The renovation was done “GREEN” and all work had to be historically accurate because they are applying for National Landmark Status.

More info and photos are always welcome.

Hey Don Lewis. My Wife the Admiral, at least that’s what she thinks she is, has the GOOD computer. I have an old, old laptop. I have no luck sending emails, just like I have no luck receiving any. I never receive replies to my comments, so I need keep checking back, now that’s a real pain! That’s how I found your above comment.

Not trying to impress anyone, just trying to fix a small typo. Most of the time the Gods at CT catch the changes, but as you can see here they didn’t, so it’s not a very good system, but I have no choice.

Sorry
