Fires. The Riviera Lanes bowling alley is sprayed as Janesville and area firemen burn down the Riviera Ballroom. A portion of the roof had fallen in earlier in the year. Repairs were made, but back taxes and low bids led the County Board of Supervisors to order the building torched. Looking southeast. Oct 1990.
