The Waverly Theatre in the 1980's. The "W" was still clearly visible on the top of the building at the time. T.Paul Photo |

| A new coat of sliding has hidden the "W"
on the old Waverly, but the front is still easy to spot. The Waverly Theatre
was the favorite movie theatre for the neighborhood, and was one block
south of the more " up scale " Boulevard Theatre just one block north. The
entire area is undergoing some " changes " and it could be interesting to
see what happens to the old theater building.
I had the opportunity to check out the interior about 15 years ago, and
while the front of the store where the customers are has been converted,
the stockroom still had the sloped floor. A new food store has just been
built in the rear of the old theatre, and it might be interesting how the
area does in the coming years. |
