I lived in Merced as a child from 1962 to 1964. I have many fond memories of the Merced Theater. I was always so facinated by the ceiling, and the faux buildings that ran around the sides of the auditorium, I always wanted to go up there and take a closer look at them. I hope the theater will be restored to it’s former glory. I live in Ft. Worth now, but would love to return to Merced someday. I’ve looked for our old house, but I can’t find 171 E. 17th St. on a map. Have some of the street names changed?
