Cascade Corp Eyes Centennial Building Deed for Downtown Mall
Local developer Thomas George says he will obtain the deed to the Centennial Building this week, enabling Cascade Development Corp. to finance a $35 million downtown Hollywood theme mall. Mayor Tim Fulkerson indicated legal issues are nearing resolution, allowing work to begin once the deed is secured. George plans to restore Warner’s theater and recreate a vaudeville space with historically accurate details, plus Edison Exhibition Projecting Kinetoscope displays and other early film artifacts. The project aims to illuminate the Warner brothers story, nickelodeons, and early cinema history for New Castle visitors.
