At the corner of N. New Hampshire and E. Lockwood. Walked by there Saturday evening on the way to another place and it looked pretty hopping but no signage that I could see and google and iPhone maps don’t show anything there. Would have been more investigative then but thought I could easily find out until I couldn’t.

No idea. It’s directly across from the Trailhead.

I posted a long response into that question in another thread and asked you several questions that you STILL HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO. At what point do you post the questions you said I haven't answered and answer the questions I asked?

Downtown Covington is about to be something special. There's a lot of good happening out there now.

Went there this afternoon. Cool place. Sprawling layout very conducive to hanging out. But is the name Bootleggers?

Yes, called Tavi

Also, the old Star Theater is being renovated into a boutique bowling alley spot with a rooftop bar.

And the Southern Hotel is undergoing an $11 mil expansion

the old Star Theater

Mr Willie ran a tight ship. Smelly Shelly sold tickets. I remember Jaws came to the Star a year after it actually came out because Mr Willie didn’t want to pay for it, or so the story goes. But I’ll be damned if we didn’t get a week long run of Legend of Boggy Creek every year right before school let out for the summer. After segregation ended, the balcony was rarely used but the crowds for Boggy Creek needed it.

Jaws was the first time I ever saw a line at the Star Theater so I don't think it took a year. I also remember being first in line to Star Wars- one of the few other "lines" at the Star Theater history

The last movie I absolutely recall seeing in the balcony was Flash Gordon.
