Whoever ends up leading Birmingham has a stark choice. Let Glenbrook Property demolish what was the UK’s oldest working cinema for a cheap tower
Or support Flatpack Festivals’ fully costed plans to create a UK leading historic cinema fit for the future
We say Empower Brummies!

For two years, while we’ve been rabble rousing, Birmingham’s @flatpack festival have been working on a fully costed alternative to Glenbrook Property’s desire to bulldoze what was the UK’s oldest working cinema. The 116yr old Electric on Station St. Here are those plans:

'The Electric' was designed in 1885 by W. Wykes of Colmore Row for John Glew, as a furniture warehouse known as the Birmingham Pantechnicon.
In 1909 the building was adapted to become Birmingham's first cinema. Its still there 115yrs later. @Glenbrookprop want it gone for flats.

Damn right we're hopeful.
Three Grade II @HistoricEngland listed buildings in 100m. We hope The Electric will join'em.
@Glenbrookprop didn't expect this fight when they pounced on The Electric, wanting to demolish a Brum icon. But Brummies bite back! 🦁
