Whoa!

It really is a shame. The Boyd didn't look like the best, but it was certainly the last movie palace. I think the Center City market could have certainly managed to support at least one boutique movie theater. Oh well, shoulda, coulda, woulda. I'm excited to see the high-rise here and how they adapt the Boyd's lobby, but I would have loved to see Rocky Horror there.
