Twitpic of the week
It’s all about the signage on this one for me, shared by @summacorp. Formerly the Thunderbird, the property was rebranded Silverbird after Major Riddle purchased the property in the mid 1970s. The marquee was built in 1978 but only existed till Dec 81 when the property closed. It was later purchased and again, rebranded. Its final incarnation was as the El Rancho, an attempt to revive the brand that started the strip. It didn’t work and eventually the property closed, was demolished and in its place now is the Fontainebleau.
