Photo Du Jour – December 23, 2005 – United Artists

As reported here, on December 16th, we take a trip back over to the U.A. to show the aftermath of what’s been going on.

The bottom floor painting, are being all scrubbed away.

As pointed out by someone, (perhaps the artist?) , they missed one on the ground floor.

With the marquee gone, the original facade of the building is visible for the first time in a half century.

Interesting little plaques, visible since the summer when the underside of the marquee collapsed, stand out prominently. Parducci’s?
