A small part survives

From a November 2005 Concordia press release:

The other amphitheatre includes three restored Art Deco murals from the old York Theatre that were unveiled in April.

And from an online tour of the new building:

Built on the location of the former York Theatre, the Visual Arts building has two amphitheatres that have been optimized for sound projection and isolated from the exterior with seating for 105. The murals on the wall are restored originals from the York Theatre.

Better than nothing, I suppose

when the theatre first closed all artwork and fixtures were put into storage for later use by the city at united theatres/famous players request. speaking of theatre abandonnements, in dorval the famous players offices have closed, i know the old theatre 2 (in its final years the "empire") was gutted, the larger theatre 1 that was twinned in the 80s was restored to a single screen theatre is still surviving in there. be an interesting one to check out. dont know what will happen as the least that is on this place has 50 or so more years on it

Just a few of the beautiful murals done by Briffa. Some went missing unfortunately and others are in Museums... I'm gonna go and have a look though.
