Georgetown Theater Sign Lighting Delayed

The iconic sign for the former Georgetown Theater was returned to its proper place at Wisconsin Avenue and O Street NW over the summer. However, the re-lighting of the sign, planned for Sept. 23, has been pushed to late October or early November.
Owner and architect Robert Bell delayed the lighting because of a personal injury. He bought the old theater property in October 2013 and is renovating the building at 1351 Wisconsin Ave. NW as retail and residential space. The theater’s neon sign, aglow in neon-red, will display the illuminated word “GEORGETOWN.”
