Alas, they wouldn’t let me in to take photos, but the guy there said they are suppose to be building a store in the auditorium (a CVS or Duane Reade no doubt)and two resturants upstairs.
I walked by the theater today and work was going on inside. I took a peek and saw that the main theater is still there in all its faded glory, but nothing a few million couldn’t fix. I’ll try and go back, this time with a camera. The work permit said non-load bearing walls were being taken down. Maybe the Shuberts bought the place and are converting it to legit use.
