The Loew's Grand Theatre is seen here in the aftermath of a fire on January 30, 1978.  Due to the high value of the real estate the theatre occupied and the fact that its historic status afforded it protection from being demolition, many believe arson was the cause of the fire, but that suspicion was never conclusively proven.  Following its complete destruction in the fire, there was nothing left to protect.  Photo courtesy of John Holcombe.
