Marketing description
The Rialto Theater Building is one of Providence's last remaining historical vaudeville theaters. Built in 1829, and then renovated into a theater space in 1906 and again in 1919, the property has a rich history as a performing arts space. While the lower levels have been dedicated to retail spaces over the past many years, the original theater space has its stadium style seating plan still intact. The second floor is wide open with a balcony and some non-loadbearing walls. If removed, this would allow for a larger layout and increased capacity potentially in the 300-500 person range. Potential to increase the balcony seating along the sidewalls of the theatre could provide “box seating.”
This building is located in the arts and entertainment district of "Downcity" Providence. It includes a 27 car parking lot which has steady income and could be removed from the sale.
