LOCATED RIGHT NORTH OF THE MAIN 1 AND 2 THEATRES. THE SMALL VOY 3 IS IN THE REAR OF THIS BUILDING. I WAS RENTING THAT PART OF BUILDING THEN AND JUMPED AT THE CHANCE TO BUY IT AS I OWN THE VOY 1 AND 2
BUILDINGS. IN THE 50'S, WHERE THE 76 SEAT VOY 3 IS NOW, WAS WHERE THE CHIEF THEATRE WAS LOCATED.
THERE ARE 3 APARTMENTS THAT I REFURBISHED 3 YEARS AGO ON THE SECOND FLOOR. THE 3RD FLOOR IS EMPTY AND HAS A VERY LARGE
ROOM USED BY A LODGE AND THE RAINBOW GIRLS. REASON FOR THIS PHOTO...NOTE THE GUYS ON THE ROOF. THEY STARTED RE-ROOFING THE
3-STORY BUILDING THIS MORNING, AND HOPE TO HAVE IT DONE BY MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK. IT IS BEING DONE BY MIKE HOLMES AND CREW. MIKE
IS OWNER OF HOLMES CONSTRUCTION AND ROOFING IN DELMAR.
IT IS A LONG WAYS UP THERE. THANK GOODNESS, WE HAVE GUYS THAT
WILL DO ROOFING ON HIGH BUILDINGS.
THERE ARE ONLY TWO OTHER 3 STORY BUILDINGS IN TOWN. THERE WERE FOUR. IN THE BIG FIRE 8 YEARS AGO, THE HALLMARK BUILDING WAS 3-STORIES. AND, IN CASE YOU ARE WONDERING, TOM PECKOSH NOW LIVES IN SOUTH DAKOTA. UNTIL HE MOVED, HE WAS MAQUOKETA'S
#1 MOVIE THEATRE FAN. HIS LAW OFFICE WAS IN THE CORNER 2-STORY
BUILDING ABOVE AND IS NOW OWNED BY BOB WAGENER. THE MAIN
FLOOR OF IT (AND MY BUILDING TOO) IS EMPTY AND FOR RENT.

THE TWO SMALL STORIES BELOW WERE SIDE-BY-SIDE IN THIS MORNING'S DUBUQUE TELEGRALPH HERALD...
NO DAILY TOMORROW, FRIDAY, I WILL BE OUT OF TOWN.
WILL PUT UP THE FOOTBALL SCORE HERE SATURDAY MORNING.
DON'T FORGET TO ATTEND PIONEER DAY THIS SUNDAY AT THE
FAIRGROUNDS.
