The ABC store has closed as of June and the building now appears to be completely vacant. With all of the construction of new condos/apartments in the neighborhood – I fear the worst.
The Colfax theater opened in 1929. It sat 2100. An attempt was made at restoration in the mid 1980’s which never came to be, but that was my opportunity to see the interior. It was a beautiful auditorium. I believe it was demolished in 1994 by the local newspaper, The South Bend Tribune, for new offices. I will try to post some pictures in the near future.
