Ebay. The colors and style would date that back to 1940s-50s. Maybe early 1960s. Anyone know about this rink?

J C Roller Rink 920 N. Washington, Junction City, KS
J C Roller Rink was a roller rink in the past but right now, it is a gun range and gun store at 920 North Washington Street, Junction City, Kansas. In Between those two was a a furniture store. That one was out and now, that gun shop, Godfrey's. Yes, there was even Quantico Tactical next door where Godfrey's took over to expand their space.
There is no information except for the address and a sticker. Nothing more.
The Interior.
N/A.
The Exterior.
Clearly it was a Dark Red-Bricks Brick-walled storefront where the rink was. Since I have no photograph of the former rink, there is no way to know that. But for now. That is what it was. However, looks like the plaza owner renovated the entire plaza and added new stores after that furniture store went out of business (or moved). And made it brighter, neater, and nicer looking. This style should last a long time. Not the Spanish trendy look of 2000s. Although the renovation on the outside was done in 2010.
Right now, its Sand color. You would not see any hints of the rink since it was heavily renovated.
