    I wish I could go back in time to experience all of it. I'm happy I get to hear stories from family and glad they were photo fanatics!

    I remember going there to see The Empire Strikes Back. It truly is lost history along with so many other places in Youngstown.

    For us west siders, if you wanted to make an impression on the young lady, you drove to the Newport for a movie rather than the Schenley or the Uptown.

    Left Youngstown to raised my kids in a better place and never looked back but I wish Youngstown could have stayed like it was before the mills closed. That's when the Youngstown and the whole valley crumbled and it will never return.

    Seen dirty dancing there about a dozen times. Think it was only a buck. Sad it was torn down.
