THE PRINCESS RUMOR MILL

I get so tired of hearing rumors about the Princess, rumors started by the opposition and those weak in faith!  Rumors like...."Pssst, the Princess is running out of money...yeah, there's no hammering going on in there!"

Well, where is all this dust on Roane Street coming from?  Is it just people that have brought in their own equipment and are tearing out the old Tappan and Margrave Drug building flooring with their own money and time?  I think not!

The restoration project is still going on and moving toward a grand opening soon.  I know there are lots of folks that will hate to hear that, but I'm loving telling them the truth!  The dream ain't going away!

The old flooring was being ripped up this week and dumped in a large dumpster sitting on Roane Street.  This demolition work paves the way for the restoration of the two old buildings to the right of the Princess.  If you remember from the drawing I posted HERE previously, this expansion will extend the lobby for the "Trail Head", new concession area, and house the area for the new elevator and restrooms, the "green rooms", dressing rooms, and the prop storage/construction area.


And, it case you haven't noticed, the canopy has been prepped to support the new LED-equipped marquee coming soon. 

Yes, things are moving right along...don't worry...it's going to happen!
