Update! Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484 Get to the Bottom of the New Ownership of The Westwood Theater in Toledo, OH

Doc here, a man who some say put full-contact croquet on the map in the mid-1980's, with an update to Mr. Glass' report from this morning regarding the future of the Westwood Theater in Toledo, Ohio by first time contributors Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484.

The news my friends is not encouraging to card carrying members in this thing of ours. 

Firstly, take it away Tito's-n-Soda!

My Good Doctor,

I noticed your post on the Twitter-webs that one of my favorite old haunts in the Glass City was purchased and pending a re-birth.  What great news that would be!  But alas, I think the Craigslist rumor mill has dashed some hopes once again.

A quick search on the Lucas Co. auditors site shows that the good ole Westwood Theater was sold at the end of October 2020.  But the purchaser is one "Overseer of Westwood Cathedral of Word and Worship".

I remember having several heavenly experiences at the Westwood of old in the past.  But I won't get too excited about a Westwood return to glory with the new ownership.  

I'll raise a glass in hopes that I'm wrong but until then... 

Cheers, 

Tito's-n-Soda

In a similar vein, Milkman2484 sent along the following as well:

Good Dr. Emilio, 

With my limited skills at searching I did happen to find the Lucas County Auditors website, and it does indeed say the property was sold on Oct 27 2020. But from the name of the new listed owner on the site, it may not be good news.  The new listed owner is "Overseer of Westwood Cathedral of Word and Worship".

Doc here once again... Many thanks for a great first time field reports (and property record sleuthing) from Tito's-n-Soda and Milkman2484.  Well done gents!  

So kids, if one can assume by the namesake of the new owners, the next event at the former Westwood Theater is more likely to be an exorcism than a sexy theme party showing XXX fare in a classic adult theater. I have lost count on the number of post-mortems I have written for The Westwood, but this final chapter seems pretty definite.

As some of you may remember, I did a lot of work with the former owners as the Westwood was being renovated and upgraded back in 2012 and 2013.  I photographed the interior of this great old theater on many occasions, and she was pretty photogenic. I'll miss her.

Thank you to everyone who jumped on my info request on Twitter and on The Journal, as we tried to get to the bottom of the sale!

We lost two great classic adult theaters this year: The Westwood and The Oregon Theater in Portland. The suckage that 2020 has wrought has been cruel. 

Thanks,

Doc

Breaking News! Mr. Glass: Is Something Afoot at the Westwood Theater in Toledo, OH?

Doc here, a man who some say spent the majority of Doctober relishing the taste sensations of 4 new meatball recipes, of which 3 are keepers. 

Over the weekend, the Lizardo Model KY Teletype Machine powered up and spit out a quick report from the front lines in Toledo, Ohio from senior Journal scribe Mr. Glass. 

Lizardo Model KY

The Good Doctor needed to read this quick dispatch twice, as my eyes were possibly deceiving your old friend in the white suit and aviators. Upon the re-read, what I first read was accurate.

Here is the quick note from Mr. Glass:

Hi Doc,

 

Mr. Glass. Cannot confirm at this time but if I hear anything I will let you know.

https://toledo.craigslist.org/mis/d/toledo-westwood-again/7223135274.html

Via an anonymous post on Craigslist, the post claims that the Westwood Theater in Toledo was sold and will re-open soon. I have not seen any other information confirming this anywhere (including Fetlife).

So Lizardos and Lizardettes, if anyone can confirm the above and provide some details on the new ownership (hopefully), that would be greatly appreciated. 

You can contact me at emiliolizardo1@gmail.com , and I will happily get the your findings out.

Thanks,

Doc
