Highland Park’s Landmark Renaissance Theaters will close March 8 for three months of renovation which will include stadium seating and a dining option with alcohol, according to a source affiliated with the company.

There was a four-screen theater in the Deerbrook Mall that closed over 20 years ago but it is still there. A visit to the back of the mall will reveal a mesh gate in front of the former theater entrance enabling people to see the old concession stand.

Would the owners of Deerbrook want to get a few months of income while the owners of Landmark keep their customers close at hand? Patch wants to know what its readers think. Please complete the unscientific poll beneath this story and let us know what you think. The results will be published Monday.

Representatives of neither Landmark nor Deerbrook have returned calls to Patch for further comment.
