In 1950, Janesville had four downtown movie houses and two outdoors. Impermanence centers on a search for an image of one, the Beverly, built in 1916 and demolished in 1959. It includes information about the city's other theaters—Myers to Mid-City—and reports on the Hotel Monterey; Kerwin Mathews, Janesville's "only movie star"; the automobile's rise; the opening of Creston Park and other car-connected businesses; and the arrival and eventual dominance of I-90.
