Very cool video! Though title could be changed to "United Artists Building renovation", since the theatre is now demolished.

They did keep the theatre lobby and smaller storm lobby... I guess for future use... hopefully restored future use! Would make for an awesome restaurant with all the fancy plasterwork.

Thanks! For those of you who have been into the Asian inspired restaurant PAO... inside the surviving lobby of the 1927 built Oriental Theatre [[originally 2950 seat auditorium... today a parking lot next to the Briggs Houz) on W. Adams. Well that PAO restaurant has just remnants of the formal Oriental Theatre as restaurant interior. But if the surviving UA theatre lobby became a restaurant... you could end up with the complete 1928 lobby on 3 of 4 walls.
