@loewsjersey was designed by architect George Rapp with the intent that "the wealthy rub elbows with the poor- and are better for this contact." It closed in 1987 and the building was slated for demolition but executive director Colin Egan and a group of local residents saved the historic theater & began to restore its lavish interior. In the latest turn of events, Jersey City has just reached a $72 million deal with the operator of the Prudential Center to transform the theater into a modern 3,300-seat venue with visual and acoustic upgrades and modernized concession and ticketing areas. #accidentallywesanderson #jerseycity #cinematreasures #cinema #loewstheater #jerseycitynj #movie #movietheater #wondertheatre #architecturephotography #architecturedesign
