ALLENTOWN, PA — In what can only be considered a death watch at this point, Allentown officials moved ahead with their plans to raze the Colonial Theater, according to The Morning Call.
Eric D. Weiss, director of building standards and safety, noted that because of its structural issues, “The building will be taken down slowly and carefully, perhaps even in bucketfuls.” The cost to demolish the building is estimated at under $300,000.
