The theater – once home to the likes of Jackie Gleason, Milton Berle and Humphrey Bogart — closed in 1969.

POKO, with the help of architect Kitchen & Associates, restored many of the art deco features of the original building, Curbed said. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for Sept. 13. [Curbed] — Guelda Voien
