The outside has been hastily redone, and the original marquee has not been relit… the paint is all over the place and in some places there are runs… they need to hire professionals and have taken out the original seating… so sad.
Actually the outside of the building is of the Mediterranean Revival Style. They are currently trying to raise money to restore/update it, and are around 1/30th of the way to their goal. Also the Adams Theatre which they speak of is now used for a religious group.
Should be listed as demolished
The offical website for the theatre is http://www.washingtoncentral.org
The owners will not restore or sell because they saw the destruction as a sign from god that the era of drive-ins was gone…..
