Booker T Theater before

The Booker T Theater opened as the Savoy Theater around 1926

This is how this building look for many years before they (city) decided to redo the Douglas Block..

The Brooker T Theater

Lot of rotten wood, will they they try to save the over hang or will they completely replace it?

If you dont know how then don't

well it seems the person who left these coals behind doesn't know jack.
Dumping coals on pine straw at the edge of a wooden area.
What could have happen

So if you don't know how to cook out with coals then don't

Downtown Live

yes no recording, Why? after all this event is at taxpayer expense.. and in public,

most of the peopleby the gray building and many on the lawn was drinking, and I'mnot talking about pepsi or coke..

Over all it seem that everyone was having a great time

Parking Illegally

How long

How long will it be, before this falls onto the sidewalk below. I see the city code enforcement isn't doing anything about this. I wonder why? A over that is leaking and rottening, I guess once it hits someone in the head then something will be done about.

I really hope that this group isn't getting all this property for that price if so they are ripping off the citizens of Rocky Mount and the city council approved it

UPDATE: THE PART IN RED WILL BE A PARKING LOT THE PART THAT WAS BROUGHT IS WHERE ALL THE CARS ARE. However, they are still getting it for steal of a price.One end of the block being fixed up at a tune of 10s of millions while the other ends goes for $2500.00..

Code Enforcement

Ok folks, those that live in the older parts of Rocky Mount, watch out City Code enforcement folks are out seeking money to help the city to fill their budget problems...they are targeting those folks whom they know don't have the money or time to fight them.. ie poor folks of rocky mount. also there is double talk in those notice.. read them carefully all abatement ie work done my city worker is 200 dollars even if thats them 10 minutes to resolve the issue.

Must we see this
