West Theatre - Grants
Grants once a upon a time was a city with 12.000 inhabitants.
That was around 1950 when a uranium deposit was found in the nearby mountains.
From this heyday there are some remains to find, in the today rather depressing town, like the West Theatre.
The cinema dates from the late 1950s. It is still open today.
