The Roxie used to be a strip club back in the 60’s.
The Roxie was a porn theatre in the early ‘70s. The Victoria down the street was the burlesque house.
I went to Mission Dolores Boys School at 3371 16th Street during the 60’s and 70’s. The nuns did not allow students to walk by the Roxie because of the lurid posters of tainted women. We did anyway…
My dad was a projectionist at the Roxie during the depression. So glad that it lives on!
