Negro house opened in a new building on the North side of Memphis in 1948 by Arthur Blackwell. Open at least until 1955. It became an auto-repair shop, and was demolished in 2002.

The building survived until 2002 when it made its last appearance in the WKNO documentary “At The Movies.” It was an auto repair shop, it never was a lovely building, and it was torn down that year.
It appears that the marquee was one of the pie-shaped varieties like the Luciann and the Georgia.
Estes W. Mann of Memphis was the architect in 1947 with sketch in photos.
