I’m not sure why there’s so much enmity directed towards this theater. I’ve always been fascinated by its unique location underneath an elevated shopping center. It’s not in an awful state of disrepair and the lobby has a pleasant retro theater/lounge look to it. The place is certainly better than the old seedy Times Square theaters with “sticky” seats. I love how people wax poetic about those kinds of places when they don’t have to live or work anywhere near them.

Additional retail space was recently added around this theater, effectively sandwiching the building. It looks odd and obscures the theater, but the new retail space does covers up the long drop to the ground below visible from the bridge leading to the ticket booth.
