This location is now a shoe store. Ottabo Shoes. The little porn shop, which seems to at one time have been a Farm Stores is still there.

The name of the city is Pompano Beach.

The Hollywood Fashion Cinema was also originally named Gamecock.

Pompano Fashion Cinema (probably named after the Pompano Fashion Square shopping mall a block north, now Pompano Citi Centre) opened as the Gamecock in the early 70s. The free-standing building was a former space for a short-lived restaurant chain.

Another short-lived effort by the management: free children’s matinees (heard it was Mr. Magoo compilations) on Saturday mornings. Recall the owner saying “no one does anything for kids around here” (and he promised any XXX posters would be taken down).

Closed in the late 80s or early 90s, since remodeled as a home furnishings store.

Al, Pompano doesn’t map, could it be Pompano Beach?

Harvey, this theatre was not in Hollywood, Florida. It was in Pompano.

There were two separate Fashion Cinemas, both showing strictly porn.
