The last movie palace in Philadelphia- albiet a subdivided one. Built in the 1920's as the Boyd - it was
one of hundreds of theaters.
It is high on the endangered list. The latest nail in the theaters coffin was a 7-2 ruling by
the Philadelphia Historic Commission-that it is not worthy of local historic status. The owner - a developer applied for a demolition
permit the very next day following the ruling. Keep an eye on this one- while it is still there.
