There was a brief article about the razing of the Polk in this week’s TimesLedger. The entire site will be replaced by a hulking 6-story mixed-use building with almost three dozen apartments and storefronts along with a bunch of parking spaces. Seems like another one of those gigantic tan brick monstrosities popping up all over Queens.
The theater and the surrounding stores are being demolished. Scaffolding has been put up along with a plywood fence. They tore down the POLK sign and overhang a couple days back. There’s also a construction dumpster outside and it looks like they’ve gutted the place.
