NEW MILFORD, CT — With plans to invest more funds into renovations, this sale of the Bank Street Theater should be for the better.

The Bank Street Theater, the village center attraction whose history dates back to the silent movie era, will soon have a new owner.

Mayor Patricia Murphy confirmed Monday that the quiet sale of the theater to a Sherman entrepreneur for about $1 million is all but complete, though the deed has yet to be recorded in the town clerk’s office.

In her talks with Goldring, Murphy said, she was delighted to hear his plans to fix the marquee, rejuvenate the lobby and concession area, upgrade the screening rooms and even open the now-closed balcony.
