Colonial Theater Funding 2026

Sure, do not do the project and have downtown slide deeper into the cesspool it was becoming. (This is sarcasm by the way)

On a serious note, the resto of the theater is just one part of the things the city needed to make it a destination again and not just a city overrun by drug clinics. Since the theater was redone folks now go out of their way to go 'to' downtown instead of going out of their way to go 'around' downtown.

And yes, it will die if the momentum of revitializing downtown dies, not because it was bad to do.
