Arlington Cinema ‘N’ Drafthouse files for Ch. 11 – Washington Business Journal
Fritz texted me on Friday evening (while I was in Pennsylvania) the news that the Arlington Cinema n’ Drafthouse is in chapter 11 bankruptcy. Their second location, the now shuttered
Montgomery County Cinema n’ Drafthouse is the cause. I have to wonder if adding a restaurant and bringing in live acts like comedians contributed. When it was just movies, I recall it selling a lot of tickets. How is the turnout for non-movie events?

Hopefully, the Drafthouse will still be around when the process is completed and does not get sold for condos or something similar. I know Arlington is keen on having the Drafthouse around as it redevelops Columbia Pike. I would enjoy taking a street car there someday. Actually, I’d just enjoy seeing a movie there again someday period, I’m a little busy these days.
