Pulaski Theatre- Pulaski VA (1)

Pulaski Theatre- Pulaski VA (1)

nrhp # 86000405- Pulaski Historic Commercial District- Built in 1911 as a vaudeville house, converted into a dry goods store during the depression, and revived as a movie house in 1937, the Pulaski Theater has been a cornerstone of Downtown. Unfortunately, the Theatre closed in 1990 and fell into a state of disrepair.

However, through the generosity and efforts of local businesses, the Town of Pulaski, the Commonwealth of Virginia, the C. E. Richardson Benevolent Foundation, and committed citizens, the Pulaski Theatre has been saved from destruction and is now undergoing rebirth as a center for a revitalized Downtown.

nrhp # 86000405- Pulaski Historic Commercial District- A key part of Pulaski's history has returned.
The train depot was rebuilt.
An electrical box shorted out in the attic in November 2008 causing a fire that destroyed the building and many of the artifacts displayed inside.
More than a million dollars from the insurance company funded the work to rebuild.
Every detail had to replicate the original building that was built back in 1888.
It will reopen shortly and will feature meeting space, a town welcome center and a bike shop.
"It's the crown jewel right now. It's the most beautiful brand new, renovated, piece of architecture in town. So it's very important to the town to remember where it came from as it finds its way to the future," said Mike McMillion, Owner of Pulaski Bikes.
The Pulaski Train Depot is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Most recently, it housed the Raymond F. Ratcliffe Museum.
