Supervisor RafaelMandelman signaled his tentative support for an amendment to the iconic Castro Theatre’s landmark designation that would protect its “fixed theatrical seating configured in movie-palace style.”
Adorned with buttons reading “Save the Seats,” advocates for the preservation of the Castro Theatre want to be abundantly clear what they mean.
In absence of a deal between activists and operator, Mandelman suggested the fixed seating amendment could be the best path forward, “but we’re not there yet, either.” That proposed set up irks preservation advocates, who believe it disrupts the theater’s historic character as a movie house and will lead to The Castro becoming just “another concert venue” in San Francisco, as one opponent of Another Planet’s plans put it during a Land Use and Transportation Committee meeting on Monday.
