Have you been inside since it's restoration? One of the most beautiful theaters I've ever been in and that includes Europe. So a little room for others who care about historic preservation (regardless of whether you think it's worth saving so it can be replaced by a non-descript high-rise building).

Right but once again, you are trying to equate real historically important and architecturally beautiful structures vrs. a 50's car dealer turned record store
Apples and oranges not comparable in my opinion.
That's like saying every hovel in Europe is just as important to preservation as cathedrals simply by their nature of being old.
