Armond Theatre up for Sealed Bid


Cranbrook's Armond Theatre in the heart of downtown, sitting on a lot that supported an Opera House before it, comes up for sealed cash bid auction in the Cranbrook Court House on Monday July 22nd morning.

This building which is part of Cranbrook's history, built in 1950 has longed for a new owner and revitalisation for over 15 years.  It's potential is enormous both in terms of the building and what facilities it might provide for the downtown.  Let's hope its new owners will be able to keep the integrity of this mid-modern era building and maybe provide a new hub in the heart of downtown.

By searching on Armond Theatre other articles we have featured can be found, including letters of support for a plan which unfortunately was unable to come to fruition.
