The Loew's Kings Theatre opened its doors to Flatbush Avenue on September 7th, 1929. Seating nearly 3,700 it is one of the five 'Wonder Theatres' built by Loew's in New York City, it opened the same day as its sister theatre in the Bronx, the Loew's Paradise. The Kings had a steady decline from the 1950's onwards and managed to last into the mid-1970's before it was forced to close due to poor att

endances. The theatre was never divided and remained virtually unchanged throughout its history. Loew's relinquished the theatre in 1977 and basically locked the theatre and left it. Over the years this most stately monument has just sat and deteriorated quietly on Flatbush Avenue. The marquee still remains but the vertical was removed in the late 1990's for safety reasons.This most majestic building awaits revitalisation. Its interior is still majestic despite the ravages time, vandals and water damage. The Kings underwent a $95 Million Dollar renovation and reopened in early 2015.

The Uptown in Chicago was designed by the same architects as the Kings. It’s restoration was announced two years ago, but has yet to begin. Send some messages of encouragement for the project to the leaders of Chicago.

I had intended to spend this weekend and this paper, sketching street musicians in New Orleans. I couldn’t have imagined I would be riding a bike in a dystopian version of New York City sketching shuttered theaters. This was my favorite message, from .
