March 06, 2018: iPic Entertainment will close the Bayshore Town Center Theatre and bowling alley, dealing another blow to the struggling Glendale shopping center in which it’s located. The company posted the news on its website. “To our guests, effective Thursday, March 8, we will permanently close iPic Bayshore, including Big Daddy’s Brew + Que and Pinstrikes,” the site says. “We are honored to have served you and the Glendale community over the last decade.” All tickets purchased after March 7 were to be refunded for the full price.
In December, Bayshore Town Center was acquired by New York-based AIG Global Real Estate Services in a deed in lieu of foreclosure transfer. The 38.4 acre property, which includes the retail mall, apartments and office tenants, is valued at $97.4 million, according to the real estate transfer information filed with the state.
