Bowtie's Movieland bought the lot next door and is planning additional retail and/or restaurants.

Hopefully this will attract an restaurant to the existing Foundry Building.

In the photograph, the Movieland Theatres are in the long, narrow building in the upper left fronting North Boulevard.

An interesting note, to train enthusiasts, is a track that veers off the main rail line in upper left.  It cuts through the parking lot and terminates at The Science Museum (old Union Station) on West Broad Street.  A few years ago, when a tour train called The American Orient Express was still operating, it used that track and parked at an existing platform under the old station on its occasional "tour of the South."  It remained overnight while passengers toured the area before moving on to Charleston and other historic cities.
