Some people are up in arms about honey mustard colored awning added to the Park Slope McDonalds on Ninth Street. The interesting question is, is it any worse than the Avon 9th Street, “a small neighborhood movie house which stood on 9th Street between 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope. It ran double features for some time until it went XXX, which it served up for years.” McDonald’s bought the site in the ’70s and tore down the theater, which was a block away from another one–the RKO Prospect.–Brooklynian via Brownstoner.
