I met my mother many a day there for lunch in the corner restaurant. She worked in City Hall with Mayor Pierce. The Stanley was only there a few more years before it was gone forever.
The Stanley was a wonderful and very beautiful movie theater. I guess I am giving away my age but my graduating class of 1965 from Woodrow Wilson High School was the last to have its graduation in the Stanley before it was demolished. The interior was born in the 20s for sure. Such a shame that she is gone in time, all but forgotten but by a few of us who were lucky enough to have viewed the lavish interior and enjoyed the shows there.
