The Future of Redlands
The old theatre in Redlands remains a symbol of one of the many historically beautiful buildings in the city. A few years ago it went under a rather large renovation that initially seemed somewhat hush. Now it has been thoroughly renovated, but it is being used strictly for businesses. It is a wonder why the historic landmark could not have been used for something related to its rich past.
There are a handful of sites that have apparently documented and debated the issue, but none that really appear to have been aimed directly at fighting for its preservation. One can’t help but think that maybe if they had only made the effort to contact a firm that is web design Redlands based they could have reached more people that may have been interested. Now the building may be repaired, but it is not open to the public as many wish it was.
Over the years I’ve had many conversations with people passionate about the possibilities that lay in the future of that building. Some hoped it would be a modern theatre, some an indie theatre, and others still hoped for a blend of current, classic, indie and silent films to further embrace the artistic and culture-rich scene growing in Redlands youth.
