Thanks to Sandy Harper for her letter to the editor May 30, suggesting that perhaps the 4th Avenue Theatre could possibly be brought back in some fashion as a special exhibit at the Anchorage Museum. Harper’s history with this Anchorage treasure, and wise words on how that historical landmark might be memorialized in some small way, brings new hope to the many citizens of Anchorage who agree with your sentiments.
Peach Investments claims that it has the artwork from the theater and plan to incorporate it in the construction of the new building on that site. But it is clear that they have no interest in serving the people of Anchorage, to preserve our cultural history and create a downtown we can be proud of.
