We've covered a few of the Schulman-owned theaters in town, with almost thirty years of cinema at the Blinn site and the late Campus Theater but one of their theaters didn't operate for very long, the Plaza III at 226 Southwest Parkway East, only operating from August 1985 (first films were Volunteers, Years of the Dragon, and The Return of the Living Dead) to 1991. In 1993, it became The Globe, much to the consternation of the Oak Forest Mobile Home Park, with the residents remembering the loud music of the Edge nightclub in the Winn-Dixie shopping center a few years earlier. The Globe opened with no live music and other limitations, opening in late 1993. Despite that, The Globe soon gained a bad reputation as far as incidents requiring police were involved, and by fall 1994, the nightclub, now named Aftershock, was still giving CSPD problems before closing for good a few months later. (It might have been a TABC license revocation). In 1996, it reopened as HomeStore Furniture, but the furniture store closed less than two years later (it was a one-off operation, not a chain). By the end of 1998, it was back to being a tavern (Rack's Warehouse, a pool hall). Also around this time (maybe early 2000s), the whole area, which had been drawn out as commercial space with concrete driveways, was rezoned as residential and one of these driveways was sealed off from the rest of the development and became a city street (Ashford Drive). After Rack's closed around 2001, it became another nightclub, Time Square, in spring 2004, which did feature live acts, including a weekend of local metal bands in October 2005. In spring 2006, Time Square closed and the building was purchased by Brazos Fellowship as their first permanent building and opening in November 2006, almost two years after the official founding of the church in a living room.
In 2012, the church began a massive remodeling project that demolished the original theater facade for a new addition, with a four-story addition being built around 2018 (which can partially be seen from the Southwest Parkway E. side, for a glimpse, see the post on the Wendy's). It has been almost twenty years since Brazos Fellowship took over the building, and even memories of Time Square become ever-distant.
