First movie theater in over 60 years coming to Brownsville, Brooklyn | News 12

Описание: A vacant storefront on Belmont Avenue is set to be transformed into a movie theater and restaurant, bringing the first cinema to Brownsville in more than six decades. Plans are in motion to bring Stuart Cinema & Café to the neighborhood, a project spearheaded by local entrepreneur and Stuart Cinema & Café CEO Emelyn Stuart and La'Shawn Allen-Muhammad, executive director of the Central Brooklyn Economic Development Corporation. The space, which was previously Harry's Old School sneaker store, will soon be home to a state-of-the-art movie theater, alongside Cornbread restaurant, a popular eatery that has already purchased the building. The neighborhood once boasted multiple theaters, but they all disappeared over time. The theater and restaurant will share the building, making it one of the few sit-down dining options in Brownsville. Construction is slated to begin in late spring, with the grand opening expected by the end of summer.
