Included in Emily Ardoin’s 2014 thesis “Fais do-do to ‘Hippy Ti-Yo’: Dance Halls of South Louisiana”: “Caffery’s Alexander Ranch is a zydeco hall located in a rural area between Breaux Bridge and Cecilia. The opening date is unknown and the club is occasionally active. The building is of a frame construction, has a front gabled metal roof, no parapet, and has a concrete slab foundation. The dance floor is constructed of plywood and the ceiling is gypsum board. The building is fair condition but good integrity. It expanded into a dance hall in 1981.”
