I just posted an update on the Parkway and am working on a story for the Friday Night Owl about the past and future. Anyway, the impression I think we all have is that money + management + programming = demise. But as for specifics — attendance, debt, costs– the owners seem to have quiet. I do know that they struggled with bringing in the right mix of films and events that would attract patrons.

I never stopped going. I always saw good crowds there. I knew they were in trouble when they stopped Monday movies, but I didn’t think they were on the verge of closing.

Decreased attendance, increased costs, debt load, code violations, etc…

And any word of possible investors or other solutions being explorer for keeping this resource around?
