12. Recreation Hall again

Album Info:
This is the former recreation hall for the Lauderdale Courts housing project. Elvis attended teen dances here, and sometimes performed. Paul Burlison used to say that he, and his friends Johnny and Dorsey Burnette played the same dances here. They would not let Elvis perform with them. They were older and among the toughest kids in the city. Today this building is a health club for the Uptown Square residents. I am standing on North Lauderdale Street opposite the building. The alley to the right of the building is what is left of the Winchester Ave. Behind me is Alabama Avenue, which we'll talk about in a minute. To find the Leasing Office, follow Lauderdale away from the highway. Look to your left, watch for the signs.
