Last curtain for Bomes

posted by Michael Zoldessy on August 7, 2008 at 7:45am

EAST PROVIDENCE, RI — With not enough support to save and restore it, the Bomes Theatre finally came down this week.

The Bomes Theatre across from City Hall started coming down last week, when part of the structure fell to the street.

Beginning this morning, it will come down in earnest.

A demolition team will begin razing the old movie theater, which was built in the 1930s and had been a city landmark.
