To the near right the Jose Theatre in San Jose, going through a rehab stint back a few years ago.

To the far right is the fruit of the San Jose City Council's efforts. The Jose Theatre is now open and housing the Improv. Best of all, the neon on this theatre also works.

San Jose, CA

To the far right is the Fox California Theatre prior to the huge restoration effort that took place the last several years. Not sure if the lettering on the marquee was wishful thinking or something that was a sure bet.

To the near right is what the Fox California looks like today. The blade neon has been placed back on the front facade and the theatre has never looked better.een serving as a church.

Stockton, CA

Here's a shot of the historic Fox California Theatre in Stockton. At the time this photo was taken, the Fox California theatre was closed and awaiting support for renovation. In 1994, the theatre was renamed the Bob Hope Theatre, and at this moment the theatre is going strong.
