Living in Philly, I can pretty confidently say there’s a 0% chance a theater in Lansdowne, even a nicely restored, historical, theater, will attract 100000 visitors in a year.

Oh, I'd expect the person whose baby this is would be over-optimistic. But I'll still maintain that a restored downtown concert space with some historical significance isn't a bad thing.

Agreed. I definitely came off a bit cynical. We just have an abundance of exceptional performance spaces in Philly and the nearby suburbs. Hopefully, this is a benefit to Lansdowne.
