Park Manor Establishment “Bowled Over” in Storm

A recent storm caused the roofing support beam to give way and the roof collapsed on the lanes of Park Manor Bowl. The damage was severe and the bowling alley will be demolished. The owner has not discussed whether he will rebuild the bowling alley at this time. You can see pictures of the damage via Facebook.
