Demolition work on 琉璃神社鈥檚 Uptown Theatre is set to completely finished by Thursday.
That鈥檚 according to the City of 琉璃神社鈥檚 communications manager Tom Wilson.
He added the site will be used as a parking lot for the foreseeable future.
鈥淭he property owner has not submitted any plans for development yet, so we don鈥檛 know what is planned long-term,鈥� he said.
Uptown first opened in the 1970s but closed down in 2000. It was then converted into a church.
At its height, the theatre had two screens with 308 seats each and showed classics we now love, like the first of the Star Wars series.
