“The Plaza Theater (lower right) at Congress and Court streets in downtown Tucson on May 28, 1968, at about where the Garces Footbridge now stands, Photo taken looking south from the current site of the Pima County courts and administration complex. St. Augustine Cathedral is upper left. The loop drive known as Avenida San Augustine and buildings in that block were demolished to make way for Veinte de Agosto Park, which divides Congress and Broadway.”
