About all that can be made out on this old neon sign is the word "Court" indicating that at one time there was an motor court style motel here. The small rectangle above the Court would have held the name Watt. A bit of the neon tubing was still in place when this photo was taken in 2012. According to one source the Watt Court was built in 1930. It's a bit unclear, but there were perhaps six guest rooms and 4 garages here.

The Watt Court sign is located at 717 First St. across the street from the abandoned Texas Motel & Restaurant. That's on Route 66 on the east side of town.
