• 2008 Google photo at top of page shows a very run down building. "Flea Market" is written on the side of the building and that was probably its last use.
• Today, it's an empty lot.
(No photos found of building from when it was still open as a skating rink.)





These are the only images found showing the inside.


The last ad I found.
