Depot Arcade

Located in Waycross, Georgia, the Depot Arcade at 1028 State Street is identified as a past entertainment venue within the community. While the city of Waycross holds a significant history as a prominent railroad junction, deriving its name from the intersection of major rail lines, specific historical details regarding the Depot Arcade remain largely unrecorded in publicly accessible archives. Research into local sources and web archives has not yielded definitive information on the venue’s opening and closing dates, the types of games and attractions it offered, or its particular role and significance within Waycross’s local community. Property records for 1028 State Street (or a similarly numbered “House St” which may be a transcription error) indicate a structure dating back to at least 1971, though its continuous use as an arcade is not documented. The name “Depot Arcade” likely reflected Waycross’s strong connection to its railway heritage.
