Bill Warren’s lean and hungry eye for expansion has landed – at least for now – in Manhattan, as reported by the Manhattan Mercury.
The Wichita theater magnate isn’t quite as optimistic as Manhattan city officials in the Mercury story. Warren agreed Monday that he’s going to need specific parking and “deal” assistance from the city.
However, he renewed long-held misgivings about the city’s demographics, calling it “a little small for what we do.”
One big similarity with Oklahoma City, home of Warren’s latest expansion, should be noted, though: Underwhelming, mausoleum-like concrete boxes masquerading as movie theaters.
So there’s no doubt that the home of Willie Wildcat would welcome Warren.
