Loew's Kings Might Have Savior



Brownstoner, citing Brooklyn Junction, reports that there may be some quixotic soul, or soulful corporation, that may want to save the majestic and abandoned Loew’s Kings theater in Flatbush. Wrote teh blog:

An unspecified “major theater operator” is considering answering the EDC’s longstanding call to redevelop the property, according to Brooklyn Junction. A city official told the blog that the company is holding focus groups to try to determine what sort of programming would work at the theater, which would probably cost between $20 and $40 million to renovate. The EDC issued an RFP for the former wonder theater in September ’06.


Improbable! And cool, if true.
