Billiards Hall in the Gordon Square Arcade
Gordon Square was notorious for its gambling. An appliance store, currently occupied by Chase bank, doubled as a look out for the billiard hall located on the lower level of the Gordon Square Arcade. When police arrived at the arcade, a bell was pushed to warn gamblers in the billiards hall - allowing them to make their way out of the back of the building.
