Mario, As has been ralated to me, there was a dipute between Walter Reade and the Mayor and Council; Reade had some plans in town the Council didn't agree with. Reade was angry and wanted out. Word was he owed some back taxes here. There was a group that got together to try to save the Mayfair. I've been told that the group did file a lawsuit on a friday, but did not secure a temporary restraining order to stop demolition. Reade brought in the wrecking ball on Sunday, before the Court re- opened on Monday. Info I got from some old-timers. My first movie was there. Fuzzy recollections - I was about 11 when it was destroyed. Yahoo!
