The building is unfortunately a mess. Water damage and building engineering problems have caused a steady deterioration of the property in a neighborhood that is steadily starting to come around. The City of Chicago has it’s sites set on the Rivera theater across the street to spend it’s money on to renovate. None of the groups that have made attempts to buy the theater have gotten their act together.
There is a scaffold around the theater now. Before long you will see and Omega or National Wrecking sign on it and they will quickly finish the job that was started when the building was first abandoned without heat.
