The Classic Grand is a narrow, sandstone building featuring a heavy, ornate stone facade that stands out from the modern glass nearby. Originally built in nineteen twenty-one, it functioned as the Grand Central Cinema. It operated for decades as a theater, surviving when many others closed. During the nineteen seventies, the projectionist, a man named Joe, kept a small menagerie of tropical birds in the projection box, filling the booth with songbirds while the latest films played out on the screen below.
