Rogue commented about Downtown Cowtown at the Isis on Mar 1, 2013 at 2:48 pm

You would think Fort Worth would try and improve Cowtown. as big of tourist draw, and the area looks so run down. Stabilizing IsIs would be a huge step toward that. If it was cleaned up and replaced the roof it likely wouldn’t look that bad.

Just saw Jimmy Vaughn there last night and what a fabulous job Wellington has done on “The Ritz”.
Its just as nice on the inside as out.

I couldn’t find it on New Sapulpa Rd. It looks like its at Route 66 and W. Ozark Trail in Sapulpa, OK.

Still standing, although all grown up. 6/2011

My Mother (Marsha Peterson Boyd) also worked at the Joy Clinton.

I can’t believe no one has submitted a photo of this theatre.

Rogue commented about Tiger Drive-In on Mar 30, 2008 at 10:23 pm

Showed X-rated films (clearly seen from Greenwell St) before it closed and became a Mobile home sales lot.
Although grown up, the cedar tree lined drive was still visible last time I was by there.

Rogue commented about Saenger Theatre on Mar 30, 2008 at 5:51 am

Too bad the Saenger sign from 1963 didn’t remain.

Any restoration updates?
