I was amazed when I came across this picture of the Culver City Rollerdrome. I didn't even know it existed.

It's quite an impressive structure isn't.

The rollerdrome was located on the corner of Washington Place and Bentley Avenue. The site is now Tellefson Park.

above: looking south along Bentley Ave. toward Washington Place.



There doesn't seem to be much information on the rollerdrome/but I did find this one photograph.

...and this small blurb about the pipe organ.

If this information is correct, I am wrong in thinking the building ran north and south (with it's entrance on Washington Place).
