The style of the Fox is “Eva Leo”, named for William Fox’s wife Eva Leo Fox.
Designed by famous Detroit architect C. Howard Crane, The Fox seated 5041(41 seats more than The St.Louis Fox) prior to the 1988 12.5 million dollar renovation.
During the 60s The Fox was co-owned by movie producer Herman Cohen (I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF) with his life long friend Bill Brown.
