Correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember the "Red Room" as the bar in the Lakeview Community Center (my name for it) that was adjacent to (or part of) Lakeview Apts and next to New South. Do I have that right? Red Ram was down the alley by Woolworths and later became the Longbranch, and later still, Mug and Margaritas.
And still later, Gee Willickers? Or was that a different building?
Not sure on that. Both Mug and Margaritas and Gee Wilikers were after my time. In any event, the original building is now gone and has been replaced by a modern two story garage like structure at the back of the old Woolworth's building. At least that's where I remember it being when you went down the alley between the Varsity and Woolworths.
I have a feeling it's the same place. Gee Wee's was a two-story place down the alley. Had a rickety set of stairs on the right-hand side after you entered, with a giant beer bottle suspended from the ceiling. The second floor had a balcony that overlooked the alley with about three picnic tables for seating. I think there was a pool table on the first floor, and it seems like the walls were covered in advertising/nostalgic stuff.
