I finally was able to get in touch with the owner of this property today. To my chagrin, they’ve not only built this theatre into a building with two floors (I imagine it was only one floor since it was a single-screen theatre), but they’ve built office space into the top floor. Even worse for my situation was that it would most likely not be able to house a bar, since there’s a preschool several blocks away, which would kill my chances for a booze permit.
On the technical side though, I was told that each floor is 4500 sq. ft., and that the bottom floor is completely wide open. Hopefully in several weeks I will be able to get the dimensions of the space (I asked for them as if the middle ceiling was gone and it was like the old theatre) or even better, be able to see inside of the Cameo for myself.
If I do I will be sure to take pictures for you guys!!
I went there today to check it out (I am currently considering locations for a future concert hall/bar), and it was in surprisingly good shape. The place looks like it has a still-fresh coat of sea foam green paint, and other than the several graffiti marks, it seems alright. The worst thing that I saw there was that the place has marble on the bottom, and some of it has cracked and been infested with fruit ants.
I couldn’t see the inside at all, but it definitely looked like it had been a while since the poor Cameo had seen a tenant. I called the number on the sign that said “For Rent”, but the person didn’t answer, and there was no message stating who the owner of the phone was. On a good note though, to anyone who’s considering renting out the property, I went next door to the furniture store to inquire about the owner of the Cameo, and they were incredibly friendly and very helpful. Definitely not the type of attitude you’d expect from such a fancy business. Depending on the state of the interior and how much the rent actually is, it’s definitely a space I would consider renting.

It would seem that the theater has been sold and is currently in operation.

It looks like they’ve done a great job with the place, although no major-indie artists are listed as playing their shows.
