ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) While the City of Orangeburg considers the possibilities for revitalizing Railroad Corner, some residents are hoping the State Theatre will be preserved or at least remembered.
The former theater “represents our heritage and our legacy,” Orangeburg resident William Green said.
“It was not just a theater. It was more like a community center,” he said.
Railroad Corner is located where Russell, Boulevard and Treadwell streets meet. In December 2019, the city purchased a block of business property there for the purpose of revitalization.
