Avalon Theatre gets a Hollywood ending

Landmark Theaters plans to purchase the Avalon, one of Milwaukee's oldest remaining movie palaces located in Bay View, and reopen it as a theater. It's a happy ending to those of us who didn't want to see the owner convert it into office space.

Unfortunately, the planned Rosebud theater will not open in the new Outpost Foods as result of this development. For a neighborhood that has no theaters right now, it was a stretch to believe it could support two competitors right off the bat.

Do some research. None of this will actually happen. Check the records of the Common Council Committee meetings, make an open records request at the election commission office for all of the alderman's finance forms. Things are not what they appear to be.
