When the big bands ruled popular music, the Coliseum Ballroom in this tiny Illinois town was one of the hottest entertainment spots in the Midwest.
In its heyday, the Coliseum had the biggest dance floor (10,000 square feet) between Chicago and St. Louis.
Now, for $210,000, you could own this tasty slice of Americana in rural south-central Illinois, 40 miles northeast of St. Louis. After several years as an antiques mall, the old ballroom is for sale.
Two prospective buyers would like to see the 82-year-old landmark along historic Route 66 returned to its original use. We're keeping our fingers crossed...
