Comment
"The $ 3 million restaurant and entertainment complex on 3830 ParkdaleDrive opened Nov. 1, 1989, amid much fanfare. The 70,000-square-foot
complex, containing three restaurant areas and 100 amusements, such as
miniature golf, shuffleboard, basketball and video games, was slated to
cost $ 20 million when all phases of the project were completed.
However, one month after River City Fair opened, construction
companies, architects and material suppliers claimed that the center owed
them nearly $ 1 million. By January, vendors and suppliers were filing
suit against River City. And in May, River City filed for Chapter 11
reorganization."
