Remember my post a while back about searching for a picture online of the bookstore I worked in while I lived in Memphis? Remember all I could find was a pic of the toilet? Well, thanks to a really cool website I came across called Cinema Treasures all about old movie theatres, I finally found some cool pics. I was so excited to find these. Back in the day, it was called The Plaza Theatre.
This photo was taken on the last night it was a movie theatre. Since Dirty Dancing was playing, it had to be 1987.
Here is a link to it today as a bookstore.
Ahhhh….the memories…
I’ve been plotting a book already about the year that I worked there! Yeah, that’s all I need…another book to write!

Makes sense, Dirty Dancing, Theatre closes…..
Peace, and keep on writing.
Hello. That is my photograph of the plaza you have there. While I have no problem with it being posted on your site, I do require a credit featured with the image. I also wouldn’t mind a link to my flickr account.

Thanks and good luck with the books!
