I am curious about the entrance to the PPAC building on Richmond Street (to the right when facing the theater). It matches the architecture of the building and has the Loew’s name in stone above what looks like a public entrance, but obviously not the main entrance. The elaborate stonework matches the main building, but is only one story tall. The structure is at an odd angle to the main theater building. And there is a plaque the essentially says 5 feet in front of that structure is not a public sidewalk but is private property. Is this original to the Loew’s State Theatre? Was it added or somehow changed during previous renovations? If original, what was it used for? Would like to hear anything you know about this. Thanks, Wayne
