Lindsay wrote at the time: “A little bit of digging indicates it’s Artechouse!”

“Dear PoPville,
Uptown Theater‘s large red outdoor title lights are ON this morning….perhaps a sign? Lots of us hope the $2.2 billion renovation plans announced recently by AMC & other movie chains will include the Uptown…..”
Other rumors are that Artechouse may be coming to/interested in the space…
