The Arlington Center

I'm very happy to see that someone is watching out for the Arlington, the mural and the needs of the citizens. 

"The owners of the former Vons grocery store adjacent to Santa Barbara’s historic Arlington Theatre have been gutting the interior of the building in anticipation of finally receiving permits for their mixed-use redevelopment project.

After purchasing the property in 2008, Urban Developments began the arduous task of having Santa Barbara’s Historic Landmarks Commission sign off on the project. Brian Cearnal of Cearnal Andrulaitis Architecture & Interior Design had to design the project around the protected view of the Arlington Theatre from the south and west and a mosaic tile mural on the Vons wall that is deemed to have historical significance."
