So what next for this relic of a bygone age? Bring back silent movies, a music hall, a meeting and conference facility for the National Union of NimBys(NUMB). Might it be a tourist attraction for people who like to see old buildings fall into decay and fall down? The excitement to see what will happen is almost to much to bear?
Saving these kinds of buildings is the easy bit, it`s finding a viable future use and any funding which is the more difficult.
Whatever the usage the enormous void of the auditorium will have to be considered , which means it could be used for , say , multi level self storage or flats above any retail. In addition any developer would want to introduce fenestration into the building to add light both on any upper floors as well as ground.
