East Harriman Boulevard doesn’t seem to exist in Edinburg. West Harriman runs into W. University. There are some law offices at 222 W. University, so it’s possible that the street address is incorrect or has been changed. If anyone is familiar with this area, let me know.
The grant was back in 2003. The local Main Street group states on their website that the Blair is under renovation and opening soon. No timetable, though. http://tinyurl.com/56rcax
The big hole in the ground that occupies the 4th and Main block is going to be a hole for some time. The oweners of the plot have suspended construction of the mixed use development due to the current soft real estate market in DT LA. To give you an example, the Tribune Company wants to unload the entire LA Times megaplex on Spring Street, but no one wants it.
It’s hard to read, but the photo on Google maps shows the marquee saying something about a performing arts center coming soon. I guess that’s been on there a while.
The theater is open. Here is their site:

It’s open now, according to the website. There is a full schedule of events.
I thought about that. Cinematour and the Mike Rivest site have the theater as Juraz. I couldn’t find any info on a theater by either name.

The Grand is slated to re-open in 2009 as a performing arts center.

It looks like 1545 Fulton is the church offices, but not the theater. The theater address is closer to 1445, as seen in the photo posted on 11/6/05.

The new Indiana Jones movie opened there today. Is it first run if the movie opens a month late?

There is a bakery at the address now. No way to tell if the bakery is in the old theater building, though.

I posted kind of a grainy photo on 3/23/07 that shows the booth, as far as i can tell.
That’s great. Hopefully more will follow.

Given that the marquee was sponsored by my alma mater, I now understand the sloth.

I guess that would help. Maybe they could put the h on the end of the city’s name as well.
