The huge screen was moved inward for the (then new) Hawn Freeway (175) being widened. In another photo, you can see the original snack bar structure close up to the front of the screen & a newer one was built further away from the screen..

A video on youtube, “Drone To Fly” says there was a crew there about a year back, removing a lot of items from the inside.. Sounds like its' closed for good.. UNLESS some company decides to take it over..

On “The Speaker Post” on Facebook, I post a min video of them disassembling the screen.. July 30th 2024
I also took several photos of the area.. Playground equip still there but in sad shape.. Swings appears to be in decent condition tho..
They were dug up and moved away from the screen..

Hate to mention but this is NOT open as a theatre.. Hasn’t been in a while! IT was last known as a club, Stereo Live Dallas was its' last occupant and now appears vacant again! March 2024..
Sad, seems nothing last here for too long.. Seems like being a Bingo place was one of the longest ventures..

Sometime between Aug of 2022 & Jan of 2024, the section was named, The Stevie Ray Vaughan Park.. Nothing of the theatre or shopping strip stands..
Sorry DavidZornig as I’m just now reading this, but this is considered a part of Oak Cliff (Dallas) Tx.. RAC
