No kidding :(
Fortunately, there's a chance it'll reopen in the future. They've softened their language since the first announcement in 2020.
- Espressosaurus 5y agoIs there? I thought all the staff had been laid off and most of the spare parts sold off/junked.
- peatmoss 5y agoOh man, I hope it isn't true that the equipment was sold off and / or junked. I have held out hope that the staff could be hired back. The LCM was a true gem. My first time there, I was continually freaking out "OMG, I'm touching an actual working [X for a dozen or so values of X]." Subsequent visits, I'd just hang out on the second floor, huffing the Old Computer Smells. Very therapeutic. I have to wonder what Paul would think about all his cool legacy projects being shuttered like this. Add the Cinerama to the list of things that I used to go to all the time, and miss bitterly.
