    The vacant lot would be developed with the Ridge Theatre, Bowling Alley by c. 1950.

    This block is going to be demolished within a year for a condo project. The Ridge’s final movie should be Rocky Horror, one final time warp again.

    I think many of the houses are still there. Including the one next to the gas station: http://goo.gl/maps/tAAJV
