I sent this to Toods:

… and she replied:

”Mobile Civic Center once known as The Mobile Auditorium…during which I have seen and listened to several bands, musicians, watched plays, circuses, worked with America’s Junior Miss, attended Mardi Gras Balls….

They had started taking it down already. Why they didn’t keep it in good repair I will never know.  There was a theater to the side of it, not in the round. It was nice at one time.  I didn’t mind the auditorium. It was fine in its day and for the town … for Mobile at the time. 

It was modern but not a horrible modern. Had some interesting features.  

We were happy with it at the time … although sad for the many old homes done away with. At the time, rough people were dwelling in them or several empty ones. At some point, the downtown area revived in that area which was good.  Further west but not too far,  the old sections were still intact among a certain kind that surrounded parts of the old area.  Still  nice in that area … nice sections. Well the roads are terrible. Oak tree roots are a problem plus Mobile, like other towns, stopped taking care of itself in the last 30 years! 

Anyway the old town homes that are still intact and vibrant hoods, I used to give tours when a Trail Maid. I liked doing that!”

Now, Trail Maids … I have posted on them before … our Toodles was one:
