An 80-year-old Brooklyn movie theater that's been abandoned for decades, with only pigeons infesting its stage, is back — again a glittering gem from the 1920s.
After a two-year, $95 million renovation, the 3,200-seat Kings Theater in Flatbush reopens on Tuesday with a concert by Diana Ross, making it the largest in New York's biggest borough.
Thanks to Martinez+Johnson Architecture, which worked on the renovation, and the Associated Press, which got an early look at its completion, photos show the extend of the restoration.
