Fitzgerald Recreation Center
A Fitzgerald landmark for decades, this old-fashioned pool hall serves the best hamburgers in town. And to locals, it’s simply “the Pool Hall”.
Its pink Vitrolite facade is an interesting architectural feature, representative of Mid-Century design.

Moore Trading Company & Billiard Hall, Register
Though not evident in these photographs, Register is actually showing signs of revival, especially in the well-repaired and maintained historic houses that make up the small core of the town. Almost two years ago, a man out riding around with his young son told me about the history of the town and suggested that he had moved here with his family to get away from the sprawl of Statesboro. He maintained that it’s a close-knit community.
As of 2018, these structures have been demolished.
