This photo of the Pleasant Hill Dome Theater was taken the last Sunday, its very last day in existence. 2001 Space Odyssey was aptly playing. Now it is no more. Eventually to be replaced by a Dick’s Sporting Goods store according to a Crazy in Suburbia post. It’s been around for 46 years, and watching a movie there is one of the few memories I have of this area back in the early nineties while visiting a friend.
There is however an appeal happening against the SyWest Development plans for the Shopping Center. From Crazy in Suburbia’s post:
The appeal basically says that SyWest Development’s proposal to replace the Dome Theater with a Dick’s Sporting Goods is inconsistent with the city’s own laws, policies and goals on historical and cultural preservation, promoting the arts and quality of life in Pleasant Hill, providing services for seniors, and creating an economically vibrant community.
So today’s question of the day is, should the Pleasant Hill Dome should be saved?
