You are right Mike this theatre was also the last Downtown house razed, it was a single level parking lot for many years till the Condo’s were built on the site.The city gets a lot of tax money on a high rise,lots more than a theatre or other building.Thats just the way of the world.Also parking lots make a lot of money for the investment till they sell the land to a developer.
Heard on the news last night that this theatre is to reopen June 3rd.Running “Gone With The Wind.They also called it the Franklin Theatre instead of Cinema.Looks like its going back to its former name.
Panhandle,I am no expert on anything,and how would you know if I do not like Westerns or not?Have a great day Billy.
Thanks TenPound!
You are right Mike,only a few loose letters,maybe it was a windy day,it is a great shot.
