STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, CO — A group calling itself the Friends of the Chief has entered into a purchasing agreement to acquire the Chief Plaza 4 return it to a single auditorium configuration as it was originally, and use it for a range of cultural events.
Friends of the Chief member Towny Anderson said restoring the small multiplex to a cultural venue that would seat as many as 470 could establish a new gathering place for the community.
“It’s more than nostalgia,” Anderson said. “It’s like getting a piece of your Main Street back in community hands. It re-establishes what they call the village well.”
