It was open until September 9th, 1965. On this night, Hurricane Betsy blew through New Orleans and the strong winds twisted the screen and it was never repaired and demolished soon after. We lived on Marie Dr as kids and could see the screen and movies from our house. The land sat vacant a couple years then the first phase of Garden Lane opened in 1968 and the second phase in 1974.
