Housed in the rear of a massive building, this 32 lane bowling alley called Evergreen Towers Bowl contained a lounge and a billiard parlor. A mattress store, optometrist and P.J. Flaherty's night club occupied the front part of the building. Three neon signs graced the building, two of them can be seen in this photo.
The White Way Sign Company provided this sign for the east side of the building advertising Towers Lounge. The bowling ball on top was motorized and an 8 ball was painted on the other side. 04-07
