As of June 2004 nothing has been done with this theater. It is still closed and still no real plans. Every once in a while someone proposes an idea but nothing has come of any of the ideas yet. You would think that because this building is across from City Hall it would be a big issue. It isn’t however, and the building is a fire waiting to happen. Fitchburg is dying and taking this theater with it.
I have an old postcard, mailed in 1916, showing the “New Whitney Block and Bijou Theatre, Main Street, Fitchburg, Mass.” Perhaps I can post it when the site’s photo feature returns.
The Fitchburg Theatre seated 1700 people.
