The proprietor of the buffet lunch at the US Hotel was Max Vogel. Any connection, Joe?

I posted the photo on the Roosevelt page. You may want to post your theory about the address on that page as the photo caption says Spring and Temple.

This may be the Roosevelt in 1936:

kencmcintyre commented about Optic Theatre on Oct 4, 2006 at 5:17 pm

Take a look at these two photos. The first is from 1907, and the second is from 1917. I posted the second one a while ago, but the link expired. The buildings on South Main between 5th and 6th are the same, but the Optic sign has not yet been added to the theater building. Presumably the building pre-existed the theater. There is a sign on the Optic building, but I can’t make out what it says.

The sign just says “Theatre”, which doesn’t help.

This December 1984 photo probably was close to the demolition date:
